Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 1 cup Warm water
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 6 large Garlic cloves
• 2 cups Vegan mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 0.75 cup Tomato sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons Cornmeal

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.

Step 2

Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and salt to the yeast mixture, then gradually incorporate the flour until a dough begins to form.

Step 3

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

Step 6

Peel and thinly slice the garlic cloves.

Step 7

In a small skillet over medium heat, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the garlic slices. Cook until the garlic is golden brown and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.

Step 8

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness.

Step 9

Sprinkle a baking sheet or pizza stone with cornmeal to prevent sticking and transfer the rolled-out dough onto it.

Step 10

Spread the tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.

Step 11

Evenly distribute the vegan mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce.

Step 12

Scatter the sautéed garlic slices over the cheese.

Step 13

Sprinkle black pepper and oregano over the top of the pizza.

Step 14

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

Step 15

Remove the pizza from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves.

Step 16

Let the pizza cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your vegan garlic pizza!
