  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 2 tsp organic sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Vegan Pizza Cheese (Melty Mozzarella)

  • 2 Tbsp vegan butter
  • 2 Tbsp flour
  • 1 cup oat milk
  • 1 cup Daiya mozarella shreds

Vegan Pizza Sauce

  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp dried basil
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ⅔ cup water
  • 1 tsp olive oil

Additional Toppings

  • 1 sliced tomato
  • 1 oz fresh basil

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.
