Nation's Restaurant News: Papa John’s introduces gluten-free crust systemwide
The new crust comes as part of a series of ingredient changes for the brand.
After testing the product earlier this year, Papa John's has officially launched its gluten-free pizza crust at over 3,000 locations. According to a recent article in Nation's Restaurant News, the crust is composed of a mixture of teff, amaranth, quinoa and sorghum.
The new product has been two years in the making and was tested in Los Angeles, Nashville, St. Louis, Houston and Phoenix before being approved.
