Gluten Free Almost Crazy Bread and Pizza
This is a gluten free recipe for imitation Crazy Bread and can be used for pizza dough as well. This is a personal concoction after experimenting with different ideas for Crazy Bread once my daughter was diagnosed with Celiac disease. She liked it so much I wanted to share it.

DIRECTIONS
- Mix all the ingredients together except the 1/2 cup rice flour that you set aside with a handmixer. Add about the extra 1/2 cup rice flour a little at a time and stir with a spoon or plastic spatula. You want it to be about the consistency of cookie dough. Add flour until you get the right consistency.
- This recipe made enough for about one pizza and 5 large breadsticks. You can make all breadsticks or just half the recipe if you don't want pizza and breadsticks.
- For the pizza I just used a spatula and spread it on a pizza pan. Spray the pan with cooking spray. I baked the pizza crust for about 10 minutes at 375 and then pulled it out and added sauce and cheese (and any toppings desired). Cook the pizza an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
- For the breadsticks I pulled out sheets of tinfoil. One for each breadstick. Spread the dough again with your spatula and use the tinfoil to keep the shape of breadsticks. You'll have to spoon it out and spread it verses shaping it like you would normal dough. We brushed on a little olive oil on top of the breadsticks and then folded the tinfoil up like a tent. Cook the breadsticks at 375 for about 15-20 minutes.
- Pull the breadsticks out and cover with garlic butter sauce and parmesan. (We cheated and bought the butter sauce packets directly from Little Caesars so it tasted pretty close to their Crazy Bread to my daughter. You can also mix 1/4 cup melted butter with 1/2 tablespoon garlic salt and brush that on top. Then sprinkle parmesan as desired.
