For a crispier crust, bake it directly on a pizza stone instead of a baking sheet. Experiment with different toppings such as mushrooms, olives, or bell peppers to customize your pizza. If you don't have xanthan gum, you can substitute with 1 tablespoon of psyllium husk powder for a similar texture. Make sure your mozzarella cheese is fully melted before adding other ingredients for a smoother dough.
