It takes a little bit of extra work and planning when using sourdough but it is worth it. In addition to the gluten free sourdough starter there is another ingredient that helps this dough taste more like regular pizza.

By the next day your starter will be happy enough to use in this recipe. If you have the proof setting on your oven that works wonderfully for Rising pizza dough or bread. If not, a warm corner of your kitchen will do. If you are not making pizza that same day you can also leave the dough in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
