• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 cup Canned crushed tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 medium, thinly sliced Red onion
• 1 medium, thinly sliced Bell pepper

• 0.25 cup, sliced Black olives

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Stir to mix.

Step 2

Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough begins to form.

Step 3

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for about 10 minutes.

Step 5

While the dough is rising, prepare the tomato sauce by combining the crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder, and black pepper in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

Step 7

Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a lightly floured surface to form a 12-inch circle or your desired shape.

Step 8

Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone.

Step 9

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 10

Layer the sliced red onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and black olives on top of the sauce.

Step 11

Sprinkle the shredded vegan mozzarella cheese evenly over the vegetables.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted.

Step 13

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before topping with fresh basil leaves.

Step 14

Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your Vegan Classic Tomato Pizza!
