Ingredients for the Pizza Base

250g gluten free flour
2 tsp xanthan gum
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
50g butter

2 tbsp chopped fresh chives, optional
200ml milk

Ingredients for Tomato Sauce

4 tbsp tomato puree
60ml vegetable stock
1 clove garlic, crushed
Bunch of fresh basil, chopped

Method

Preheat the oven to 220C/400F
To make the pizza base, sieve the flour, xanthan gum and baking powder into a bowl. Rub in the butter and then stir in the cheese and chopped chives. Add the milk little by little to form a dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a minute to form a smooth dough. Cover with cling film and set to one side
Combine the chilli flakes, oregano, salt, black pepper and garlic in a bowl and toss the Quorn Pieces in the blend to coat evenly
Preheat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the Quorn Pieces for 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the heat and set to one side
Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan, add the onion and peppers
To make the tomato sauce, combine all of the tomato sauce ingredients and mix well
Split dough into two balls. Roll out each ball into 1cm thick rounds. Brush with oil, spread the tomato sauce over the top of the pizza and top with the onions, peppers, Quorn Pieces and olives. Sprinkle with grated cheese or shredded mozzarella and basil leaves and bake in the centre of the oven for 20 minutes until golden brown
