Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.

Make a well in the center and add warm water and olive oil. Mix until a rough dough forms.

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Lightly oil a 9x13 inch baking pan and press the risen dough into the pan, pushing it to the edges.

Let the dough rest in the pan for about 15 minutes to relax.
Step 8
Crumble vegan Italian sausage evenly over the dough.
Step 9
Sprinkle half of the nutritional yeast over the sausage crumbles.

Spread the vegan mozzarella cheese evenly over the sausage and dough.
Step 11
Drop spoonfuls of marinara sauce across the top of the cheese, leaving some spots bare to achieve the classic Detroit ‘racing stripes’ look.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 13
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.
