I am not that familiar with gluten-free recipes, but we are having a pizza party for the Christmas holidays and one of my wife's relatives is gluten-free. So, I looked online for gluten-free pizza recipes, and this was the only one that actually got favorable reviews. We ordered a 4 lb. bag of the pizza mix, and I just made two pizzas today. One of the reviews I read said that he used his food processor and got great results, and since I use my Cuisinart food processor for my normal pizza dough, I used it for the Pamela's. It worked fine, although I thought the dough seemed like it was a bit dry, but it was sticky as the recipe said it would be. Maybe I accidentally packed the flour or under-measured the water. Not sure, but I will probably try to have it a little less dry next time. Definitely use oiled fingers for handling and shaping. I let it rise for three hours, but it really didn't double. It was a bit difficult to press out into the pizza shape, even with oiled fingers. I actually found that brushing the dough with olive oil and then covering it with a piece of plastic wrap, and then pressing it out, worked much better. At our pizza party, my oven will be at 500 degrees, so that's what I set it for tonight, even though the Pamela's recipe says 475, and I will also have pizza stones in the oven. I also used parchment paper as the recipe calls for, and dusted it with cornmeal for texture and flavor. My oven was pre-heated for an hour at 500 degrees with two pizza stones in it. I par-baked in the pizza pans on top of the stones for 8 minutes, although I originally planned to only go for 5 minutes, but at 5 minutes it just didn't seem like it was ready, so I went for the full 8. Then I added my sauce (SeriousEats NY sauce) and my cheese (a 4 cheese blend of whole milk mozzarella, asiago, parmesan, and romano) and sautéed mushrooms, and cooked it for another 8 minutes with the parchment paper directly on the stone. Okay, the toppings were bubbling and the cheese was starting to brown, but the crust was still pretty much pale. I went until the cheese was starting to brown in spots (perfect!), and pulled it out. I was amazed! Okay, so the crust wasn't as crispy/chewy as my (SeriousEats) NY crust, but it was damn near! And it actually tasted good! Again, not as good as my (SeriosEats NY) normal crust, but I have certainly had a lot worse! The edge of the crust was a bit crunchy, but the main part of the crust was actually pretty good. Although it's not quite up to my normal standard for pizza crust, for gluten-free I'll give it a 5.

Just Yuck.

Awful. I have gone through the whole 4 pound bag, followed the directions exactly, and it never turns out good. It has no flavor, it doesn't rise, and it's very chewy. We very much prefer to use Pamela's Pancake mix, and use the pan pizza recipe found on their website. It has far more flavor and a much better texture. I am very disappointed with this product.
