Ingredients

• 1 ball Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, dairy-free)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 cups Baby spinach, fresh
• 1.5 cups Dairy-free mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Cornmeal (optional, for dusting the baking surface)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating. Alternatively, use an inverted baking sheet.

Step 2

Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dairy-free pizza dough into your desired pizza shape (approximately 12 inches in diameter). Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.

Step 3

Optional: Sprinkle the parchment paper with cornmeal before placing the dough on it to give the crust a slightly crispy texture.

Step 4

In a small skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the fresh spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.

Step 6

Sprinkle the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper over the tomato sauce for added flavor.

Step 7

Evenly distribute the cooked spinach over the sauce, followed by a generous topping of dairy-free mozzarella cheese.

Step 8

Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil around the edges of the crust to help it brown during baking.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the pizza (along with the parchment paper) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

Step 10

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the dairy-free cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing. Serve and enjoy your dairy-free spinach and cheese pizza!
