Gluten-free pizza HCLFV

When it's time you absolutely desire some pizza, make some of your own, and make it vegan!
I decided to discover different gluten-free bases and happened to have corn meal in my closet. Honestly I wasn't expecting a result this good, but it worked quite well. The texture was a little "corn mealy" but pretty close to conventional base for my taste. If you like sweetness, you can add chopped dates into the base. What I did the first time was this, plus adding some sliced grapes on top of the pizza and a oven baked banana on the side. I personally didn't like the combination of sweetness and "saltiness" (no salt in this recipe) in this case.
Last time making this pizza my camera was dead so pictures will follow later.

Pizza base

1 cup rice flour
1 cup corn meal
1 tsp baking powder
oregano

---> Mix the ingredients and spread them on the oven pan. Pre-bake in 225C for 8 min and take out to cool.

Pizza toppings

1 cup chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup tomato passata
steamed chopped broccoli
steamed sliced potatoes
sliced red and yellow peppers
(spinach)
herbs of your taste

---> Spread the tomatoes and passata on top of the pre-baked base. Then add the other toppings. Bake for 15 minutes in 225C in the middle of the oven. Let cool down for a while before eating.

Serve with salt and oil-free sweet chilli sauce if you prefer.
