Instructions
Vegan Pizza Dough
- Add all the pizza dough ingredients in a bowl and mix until a thick dough is formed. Let it rest about 45 minutes, covered, or until doubled in size.
Vegan Pizza Cheese
- Melt butter in a skillet. Whisk in flour. Slowly add in the oat milk, whisking continuously.
- Heat mixture until bubbling, then turn off heat and mix in Daiya mozarella shreds or vegan cheese shreds of your choice. Sprinkle in some salt if desired. Let rest about 5 minutes.
Vegan Pizza Sauce
- Mix all the ingredients together. Add a sprinkle of salt if you like.
To Make The Vegan Pizza
- Preheat oven to 420° Fahrenheit. Roll out some dough on a floured surface. You can make 2 average size pizzas. Spread some of the sauce onto the dough. Spoon the vegan mozzarella sauce on to the pizza. Add some tomato slices.
- Bake the pizza about 10 minutes or until it looks slightly browned on the crust. Let cool about 5 minutes before slicing.
