Inspired by a recent podcast episode with James Macsween from Macsween Haggis, I had to have a crack at making my own Haggis Pizza.

This super tasty recipe is gluten free using a gluten free haggis from Macsween’s and gluten free bread flour from Shipton Mill



You can make it with normal bread flour and haggis but as somebody with a gluten intolerance, making this pizza base and topping with gluten free yumminess was out of this world.

For the base (dough mixture)

• 185ml warm water
• 1 tbsp caster sugar
• 1 sachet of gluten free yeast
• 200g gluten free bread flour
• 1 tsp of Xantham gum
• 1/2 tsp of gluten free baking powder
• 1tsp of salt
• 1 tbsp of rapeseed oil
• 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar
• Fine polenta for dusting
  
  

For the toppings

• 1 x Gluten free haggis
• 1 pepper sliced
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 packet of mozzerella
• BBQ sauce for the base

1. Put your warm water and sugar in a jug and stir until dissolved
2. In a bowl mix your flour, xantham gum, baking powder, and salt together.
3. Place the yeast at one side of the mixture.
4. Add the oil, vinegar and mix until combined.
5. It should make a sticky dough. Avoid the temptation to kneed as it doesnt have gluten in.
6. Transfer the dough into an oiled bowl and cover with cling film. Place in a warm area to prove for around 1hr.
7. After the mixture has doubled in size, place on a sheet of baco glide / baking parchment and lightly dust with polenta. Spread the dough out with your hand to make a pizza shape.
8. Now it’s time to add your toppings.
9. Spread the base with BBQ sauce
10. Then add crumbled haggis, mozzerella, onion and peppers.
11. Sprinkle some oil over the top before it goes into the oven for around 20 minutes until crispy and cheese has melted.
12. I served my pizza with a side salad grown from my garden.
