STEP 1
Set the oven temperature to 220C/200 fan/gas 7 and add two baking sheets.
STEP 2
In a small saucepan, heat the oil and sauté the onion for 10 minutes over low heat, or until soft, to make the sauce. Bring the water, sugar, and chopped tomatoes to a boil before adding the purée. Reduce by half and thicken in a saucepan over low heat, stirring often for 25 to 30 minutes. Blend the sauce to a silky consistency using a hand blender. Add the basil once you’ve seasoned it to taste. Put the heat off for a while.
STEP 3
Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum together in a large bowl to make the dough. Dig a well in the middle and fill it with 250 ml of warm water and olive oil. Mix the ingredients quickly with your hands until you get a thick, sticky paste. Add another 20 cc of warm water if the dough feels dry. Store for up to 24 hours in the fridge in a sealed container or dish before serving. Lightly flour two more baking sheets. Half of the dough should be pressed into a circle on the sheets, between 20 and 25 centimeters in diameter.
STEP 4
To finish the bases, spread a thin layer of sauce over them and sprinkle them with mozzarella cheese. To get crisp edges, bake the sheets for another 8-10 minutes on top of the hot sheets.
