Ingredients

• 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch pizza) dairy-free pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 cups crushed tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 0.5 red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced (any color)
• 1 small zucchini, thinly sliced into rounds
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.25 cup black olives, sliced
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (for cheesy flavor)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.

Step 2

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dairy-free pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a preheated stone.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil and minced garlic. Brush this mixture over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.

Step 4

In another bowl, mix the crushed tomatoes with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Spread this sauce evenly over the prepared dough.

Step 5

Layer the toppings: start with red onion slices, then add bell pepper strips, zucchini rounds, cherry tomato halves, black olive slices, and baby spinach.

Step 6

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables for added flavor and to prevent drying during baking.

Step 7

Sprinkle the nutritional yeast evenly over the top of the vegetables to mimic the taste of cheese.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the veggies are tender.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your flavorful and healthy Dairy-Free Veggie Pizza!
