vegan pizza from scratch

4:07:00 AM Unknown 0 Comments


So, before I became a vegetarian and got into veganism in general, I had never thought of a pizza without chicken, bacon or any kind of meat. I also never thought there could be a pizza without cheese! Now... I am not fully vegan (yet),I am vegetarian but I try to leave animal products out of my diet as much as I can. And whenever I make a homemade pizza I'll either put vegan cheese or no cheese at all, and of course no meat as toppings.


This time though, I had no vegan cheese so I just made my pizza without any cheese, which honestly tastes just as good as "regular" pizza, maybe even better! However, I'm not an expert at this but I'm experimenting and I'll probably update you with an even better recipe for pizza in the future.

Soo, I'd like to share with you this easy recipe for delicious pizza!

The ingredients are:

For the dough:



  • 2 cups of flour
  • 1 tbsp yeast
  • 1/4 tbsp salt
  • 1/2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 cup water (or less)


Instructions:
First you need to activate the yeast. Just pour the yeast in a bowl with some warm water and leave for about 10'. 
Then, go ahead and mix half a cup of the water with the rest of ingredients in a bowl.
Mix well and gradually add the rest of the water until it becomes a thick ball.
Cover the bowl with a towel and leave it for about 15'.
You can then roll the dough out into a circle shape and put it an a baking pan that has been layered with some olive oil.


For the pizza sauce:
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2-3 tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • a pinch of salt
  • a tsp of sugar
  • 1 tsp of oregano

Instructions:
Cut the tomatoes into small pieces, leaving the skin out(I used a grater).
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
Pour the sauce on the dough and spread with a spoon.


Toppings:
  • 2 mushrooms
  • some corn
  • half a red onion
  • a red pepper

Instructions:
Cut your toppings and put them on your pizza, except the spinach.


Bake your pizza for about 10 minutes then top it with the spinach leaves and bake for another 5 minutes. 

Slice and serve!
