Today’s gluten-free Individual Pizza is not only a wonderful six-inch personal gluten-free pizza. It’s also made without grains. It’s my version of another personal pizza recipe, one which has long been buried in my archives.
I love pizza. However, being home alone most of the time, I don’t want to make a full-sized pizza. When I do, I either end up overeating or I’m eating pizza for several days (because I’m not really into freezing pizza to eat later).
So, when I was reminded of the personal pizza already on my site, I thought” hmm, time to update that recipe to include ingredients that I like to use all the time.” So, I did.
I used a large egg, extra virgin olive oil, almond flour, tapioca flour, and coconut flour plus, a little salt and baking powder for a bit more flavor and some lift. (No yeast or xanthan gum.) The results were wonderful!
When I shared my photo on Facebook, so many of you got excited! Hey, I get it! Individual pizzas made just for you or your gluten-free loved one are exciting! Plus, this recipe can be made on the spur of the moment and you can be enjoying your own homemade pizza in about 20 minutes. Oh, how I love that!
Gluten-Free Individual Pizza Made with Almond Flour, Tapioca Flour, and Coconut Flour
I know that not all of you use coconut flour or like even a smidge of coconut flavor so I tested another version where I replaced the coconut flour with a little more tapioca flour. The crust rose more and the resulting gluten-free individual pizza was just as wonderful—with no coconut taste of course.
If you don’t mind a little coconut flavor, I’d recommend trying both versions. If you don’t eat coconut in any form or prefer a “plainer” taste, you’ll want to go with the version that’s made with only almond flour and tapioca flour.

I have not tried an egg-free version of this pizza but I suspect that a flax gel egg, chia gel egg, or commercial egg replacer would work. If you try any of these options, please let us know your results. Fingers crossed!

Shirley you came through again! I was thinking of the pizza with the cheese crust, but it’s way too big for just me, so I was considering scaling it down. Now I don’t have to! Thank you, thank you, thank you! This will be just perfect for me. I don’t know how you do it, but every time I need a recipe for something, you pop into my email. My husband used to eat a lot of the mock Fathead pizza, but I lost him in December, so I’m learning to make smaller meals with fewer leftovers. I still remember the beautiful tribute you wrote to your own beloved husband after his death. I saved it at the time, and have read it several times since. I will never do great things in life, but I was blessed with a wonderful, loving man for fifty amazing years. I couldn’t ask for more.

Hi Mari–It makes me so very happy to know that I have once again supplied the perfect recipe for you at the perfect time! 🙂 I hope the streak continues. 😉
Losing one’s beloved husband after so many amazing years together is so hard. Sending you my deepest sympathy on your unfathomable loss. Please know that to love and be loved in itself is a great thing. ❤️
Finally, it means so much to me that the post on Mr. GFE spoke to you. Thanks for telling me that.

Judee says
Oh Shirley! I’ve been so craving pizza lately and this one is just the right size and looks so easy to make. The mini socca recipe looks interesting as well. Thanks for some delicious looking recipes.
Shirley Braden says
Hi Judee–Whichever pizza you make, I hope you enjoy it! I want to make my individual pizza using a flax gel egg soon and see how that goes. I’m certain it will work but want to check out the taste and texture. I actually had to take a pizza break though, after making so many of them over a few days for taste-testing purposes. 😉
