Pizza Hut’s Gluten Free Pizza

by 122 Comments


IMG_4476 I was invited to try Pizza Hut’s® “Gluten-Free Pizza” made with Udi’s® certified gluten-free crust and of course, I said yes. I’ve never said no to pizza  (nor will I ever!). I grew up eating Pizza Hut because it’s my parents’ favorite store to order pizza from, so I was familiar with their pizzas already. I was excited to try a new product! Since I had a Pizza Hut only a couple of miles from my place, I decided to order it for carryout. I pulled out my computer, went to pizzahut.com, and started personalizing my pizza. There was only one size gluten-free crust pizza to choose from, a small ten inch. I went with that option and added some chicken and went light on the cheese. You could also opt to go plain cheese, pepperoni, or personalize it however you’d like. Fifteen minutes after I submitted my order, my pizza was ready for pickup. IMG_4471 Sure enough, my pizza was right there waiting for me when I showed up. I love when stores have the food ready when they say it’s going to be. My total was just over $12 because I added an extra topping. The Udi’s Gluten Free Pizza starts at $9.99. IMG_4473   I had no idea what to expect because I’ve never had gluten-free pizza before. The crust was very flat and crispy, which reminded me of bruschetta or a cracker. IMG_4475   The rest of the toppings were great as usual, but it did take me a while to get used to this pizza. I felt like it was more of an appetizer than a meal because of how light it was to eat. I didn’t feel sluggish or overwhelmed after eating a couple of slices. That’s a good feeling. IMG_4478     Pizza Hut partnered with the Gluten Intolerance Group (GIG) to make this “Gluten-Free Pizza” preparation possible. The pepperoni and cheese-only pizzas are the only pizzas certified by the GIG. All of the Pizza Hut team members are trained in order to take specific precautions when making these pizzas. IMG_4483   Although Pizza Hut does offer gluten-free ingredients, their entire kitchen is not a gluten-free environment. That means that they cannot assure that every menu item will be completely free of gluten. Still, they’re taking a huge step ahead by offering those Gluten-Free ingredients.

    I haven’t tried a gluten free pizza yet. I checked the Pizza Hut listings and so far there aren’t any stores near me that are offering gluten free.

    I’ve never tried a Gluten Free Pizza Crust but am pretty excited to. Udi’s makes some great products so I’m guessing the pie a Pizza Hut holds up to the name!

    Yes, I have. I have made my own using the crust from Katz Gluten-Free and actually did a taste-test vlog about it on Youtube over a year ago. 😀
