Notes
Tips for the Perfect Coconut Flour Pizza Crust:
- Coconut flour absorbs a lot of moisture, so add water gradually if the dough feels too dry.
- For a crispier crust, bake slightly longer before adding toppings.
- Experiment with seasonings like Italian herbs, onion powder, or chili flakes for extra flavor.
- If you prefer a chewier texture, try adding an extra egg or a bit more cheese to the dough.
