While pizza is traditionally made from wheat and topped with cheese, this isn’t the way of things any more. Innovative replacements that do not compromise on flavour have made it possible for pizza lovers of today to indulge in this much-loved food, even if they have dietary restrictions.

Gluten-Free Options

Gluten-free pizza crusts: For those following a gluten free lifestyle, there are options in the form of rice flour and cauliflower or chickpea flour based-pizza. These bases can be cooked to a lovely crispy finish and are just as satisfying as their flour or rye based counterparts, especially when they’ve been blasted in an extremely hot oven. At the same time, many pizzerias have introduced gluten-free preparation spaces to avoid any potential for cross-contamination. For a Pizza Restaurant Dublin, visit forno500.ie/

Vegan Pizza Perfection

The vegan pizza revolution has gone beyond mere toppings. Cashew cheese, almond-cheese and coconut oil-based cheeses are all meltable options replete with that delicious pull. These vegan pizzas are exploding with toppings such as marinated artichokes, roasted peppers, caramelised onion and sauteed mushrooms smothered in a rich tomato base.

Other Dietary Considerations

Low-carb diets can have pizza with almond flour or protein-based crusts. Instead, opt for a low-carb mozzarella/almond flour-based crust – even keto followers can get in on the fun.

With all sorts of dietary restrictions, pizza night does not need to be left in the past. No matter if you’re gluten-free or vegan, dairy-allergic or another eating plan, there’s a pizza for just about every type of eater. So, it is really about finding restaurants or recipes that do these alternatives justice by utilising good ingredients.

Just a reminder that pizza is for everyone and it welcomes all opinions.
