Mix
In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients and whisk to combine into a smooth, liquid batter.

Pour
Pour the batter into the centre of the lined tray. Use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly to the edges.

Bake the base
Place in a preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp to your liking. Remove from the oven.

Finish your pizza
Add your favourite pizza toppings, then pop the pizza back into the oven for a further 10-15 minutes or until golden brown on top.
