    Your guide to thin and crisp grilled gluten-free pizza crust (whole grain + gum-free) and a springy topping of fresh peas, meyer lemon, goat cheese and mint.
    delicious Grilled Gluten-Free Pizza with Peas, Lemon + Mint
    It's like I blinked and suddenly it's summer. At the co-op, I'm shocked to see buckets of peaches, nectarines, zucchini, cherries, and even corn. Corn! In May! Where did spring go?

    My niece is through with her first year of college. My sister's planning a birthday camping trip to Big Sur. And San Francisco is finally cooling down, a sure sign that summer's on its way along with Karl the Fog.

    My friend and neighbor Kimberley has a long-standing summer tradition of grilling pizza on her patio, a ritual she gave up when she went gluten-free several years ago. When we met last spring, we hatched a plan to resurrect the tradition. Despite the fact that we live 5 blocks away from each other we finally made it happen a year later. I brought over some dough and toppings, Kimberley whipped up something delicious (coming soon to her blog!) and grilled some asparagus. Our friend Emma joined us from Napa with copious bottles of wine, radishes, snap peas, meyer lemons and kale from her garden, and her camera. We made a salad with Kimberley and Emma's garden offerings, cracked a bottle of wine, and had a feast.

    In true SF style, there was an icy gale blowing on the patio. It kicked up the coals, blowing sparks on our toes, and we huddled around the grill trying to shield our lenses from the onslaught, snapping a few shots when we had the chance. With our SF pallors we were too afraid to sit in the sun, but wesettled into the soft carpeting and made a picnic on Kimberley's studio coffee table. It was a pretty classic San Francisco summer day.

    Shooting in Kimberley's space was a dream come true for me. That gal is my food photography idol and her studio is a panoply of handmade ceramics, barnwood, and glorious light. Heaven. Emma captured tons of beautiful moments with her impeccable eye, all of which you can see on her fabulous blog.

    As for the pizza, the grill does wonders for my favorite gluten-free dough. We were too chicken to throw the raw dough on there, fearing it would break apart and fall through the cracks, so we took a tip from Fine Cooking and parbaked it first. This makes the crust firm enough to slide on and off the grill as needed, and it helps the center of the dough cook through. The grill adds an addictive smokiness to the crust, and the hot coals act like a pizza oven, making it super crisp and bronzed.

    As for the toppings, mozzarella and goat cheese hold the peas in place. Thinly sliced meyer lemon adds tang, and mint is a classic with peas for a reason. The mild flavors let the peas star, and the crust holds up beautifully even when laden with gooey toppings (better than most wheat-based crusts, I must say).

    Oh, and if you don't have a grill, never fear: I've given oven instructions in the recipe header. Here's a version I made at home with ricotta in place of the goat cheese – pretty tasty, too.

    Grilled Gluten-Free Pizza with Peas, Lemon + Mint

    Print Recipe Pin Recipe
    Your guide to thin and crisp grilled gluten-free pizza crust (whole grain + gum-free) and a springy topping of fresh peas, meyer lemon, goat cheese and mint.
    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 25 minutes
    Total: 35 minutes
    Servings: 4 to 8 servings, makes 2 (12") pizzas

    Ingredients

    • 1 recipe Thin + Crisp Gluten-Free Pizza Dough
    • 1 1/2 cups shelled peas (from 5 pounds / 680 g shelling peas)
    • 2 teaspoons olive oil
    • 12 ounces fresh mozzarella, drained well and sliced (340g)
    • 1 1/2 - 2 cups crumbled fresh goat cheese or whole milk ricotta (about 12 ounces / 340 g)
    • half a large meyer lemon, seeded and sliced paper thin
    • two handfuls of small mint leaves
    • flaky salt and freshly cracked black pepper

    Instructions

    • Make the dough, let it rise, shape, and let rise again as instructed. While the dough does the first rise, prepare your ingredients and get your grill situation going; you want some steady, warm coals for this. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350ºF.
    • Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the peas and cook briefly, shuffling the pan a few times, until they're bright green and crisp-tender, a minute or two. Remove to a bowl and let cool.
    • When the crusts are shaped and ready, slip them, parchment and all, onto baking stones or inverted baking pans and parbake for about 20 minutes; they should be firm and set, but not too golden. Slide them off the parchment and onto pizza peels (or cool inverted sheet pans or large cutting boards that are heat resistant.)
    • Use a wide metal spatula to slide the first crust onto the grill and cook on the first side until deeply bronzed and crisp. This should take about a minute, but peek under the crust occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn and move it around as needed to brown it evenly. When the first side is cooked, use the spatula to guide it back onto the pizza peel. Flip the pizza over, so the grilled side is facing up, and top with half of the mozzarella, goat cheese, cooked peas, and lemon. (Press the peas into the cheese so they won't roll off in the next step!) Slip the pizza back onto the grill and cover. Cook, peeking under the crust occasionally and moving the pizza around the grill as needed so it cooks evenly, until the toppings are hot and melted, 2-3 minutes. Maneuver the pizza back onto the peel, slide it onto a cutting board, top with half the mint and some flaky salt and pepper, and cut it into wedges. Serve immediately.
    • Repeat the process with the second pizza. Leftovers keep well refrigerated airtight and reheated in a skillet over a low flame.

    Notes

    Thanks to Kimberley for the being the grill master and teaching me the ways of grilled pizza.
    Feel free to play fast and loose with the toppings here. Ricotta can stand in for the chevre, asparagus or favas for the peas, or try this method with summery toppings such as corn and cherry tomatoes.
    If you're grill-less, make this pizza in a 500ºF oven on a hot baking stone, parbaking the crust for 3 minutes, adding the toppings, and baking for an additional 5-7 minutes.
    Nutritional values are based on one of four servings.

      What a beautiful recipe. I love the spring ingredients and I LOVE the GF dough that isn't made of cauliflower. This looks so good! I've been really getting into some of your recipes lately since I've recently established a real connection with Mexico. I've been cooking through your polvorones and your stuffed poblano peppers and seriously your recipes are incredible. I'm not gluten free or vegan, but I prefer these recipes to some of the more traditional ones just for taste alone. Thanks for consistently putting out good stuff.

      Hmm just commented using anon (for ease of use) but don't see my comment so here it is again. Please delete this one if the original is actually cued up...there's just no message to confirm receipt so is hard to know.

      I mentioned l loved your pizza wheel because it looks like an all metal one, which it's hard to find nicely designed metal ones one, and two, I try to boycott plastic handled tools of all kinds just because they all just end up in the landfills! Any idea what brand this one is? I don't see it on Amazon, after an admittedly brief look. Thank you!

    Fresh on TBG: GF Rhubarb Cake with Almond Flour & Fresh on TBG: GF Rhubarb Cake with Almond Flour & Olive Oil
✨
I don't remember tasting rhubarb until I moved from the LA area up to Northern California for college. There I fell in love with the tart stalks. Luckily for me, I also fell in love with a guy who's mom grows loads of rhubarb in her yard! We went to visit last weekend and came home with bags full of rhubarb and plump Meyer lemons from Mary's abundant garden. Just the ingredients needed to make this cake! 
✨
This GF rhubarb cake tastes like spring on a plate: redolent with the flavors of almond, olive oil, bright citrus, and tangy rhubarb. It looks deceptively fancy, with slices of pink-hued stalks arranged in concentric circles. But don't be fooled: the batter comes together with just a bowl and a whisk in a matter of minutes.
✨
If you don't have any rhubarb on hand, don't fret: swap in other fruit such as fresh or frozen berries, cherries, peaches, or anything else you like. 
✨
This recipe uses the GF flours almond, oat, sweet rice, and millet. I’ve also tested a grain-free version with almond, cassava, and tapioca flours that works beautifully. Make it DF by using plant yogurt.

I was craving this fluffy, springy, gently-spiced carrot cake the other day, so I tested a grain-free and naturally-sweetened version. It’s pretty tasty, and it also happens to be kosher for Passover! 
🥕
Now you can make this elevated classic with a gluten-free flour blend (sweet rice, oat, millet, and tapioca flours) or go grain-free with cassava and coconut flours. Either way, this beauty comes together in minutes with one bowl and a spatula, and it bakes up with a pillowy and tender crumb.

Make it in a 9-inch round pan for a single layer cake, or double or triple the recipe for more layers. Or use a square or rectangular pan for sheet cake. Gussy it up with rainbow carrot ribbons, or drizzle with maple or honey on top.

Or you can go paleo and top it with whipped coconut cream or thick coconut yogurt. Feel free to add any carrot cake mix-ins you like – pineapple, raisins, shredded coconut, or toasted nuts.

While I didn’t grow up in a religious family, I loved putting together this roundup of sweet treats that happen to be kosher for Passover. I don’t know if it’s the pandemic, my age (I’ll be 40 this year!😳) or following such inspiring Jewish foodies (Jewdies?) as @jakecohen, @zenbelly, @whatjewwannaeat, @predominantly_paleo , and @estherandloretta , among others, but I’ve been feeling super nostalgic for Jewish cuisine lately.
✨
Also, I had no idea how complicated the rules of Passover really are! I knew that wheat and yeasted baked goods were strictly verboten, in order to honor the hardship of our people traversing the dessert without time to stop and let their bread rise. But I didn’t realize that certain groups observe stricter rules, avoiding all foods that even *look* like grains, such as beans, legumes, and even cardamom! 
✨
I even asked you all in my stories to weigh in on the heated debate about baking soda and baking powder. Apparently they are *technically* kosher for Passover according to the letter of the law, even though I and many others always thought they were to be avoided. 
✨
Whether you celebrate or not, I hope you go meshuga for these recipes! A few favorites: 

1. GF Vegan Chocolate Tahini Tart
2. Brown Butter Macaroons
3. Vegan Key Lime Pie
4. Paleo Crepes
5. Pot De Creme
6. Almond Poppy Seed Eton Mess
7. No-Bake Brownie Ice Cream Sandos
