Ingredients

• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 cup Marinara sauce (vegan)
• 1 cup Vegan mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Bell peppers (thinly sliced)
• 0.5 cup Red onion (thinly sliced)
• 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 0.5 cup Mushrooms (sliced)
• 0.25 cup Black olives (sliced)
• 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 1 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and sugar. Stir to dissolve the sugar, then sprinkle the active dry yeast on top. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes foamy.

Step 2

Add the all-purpose flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir until a dough forms, then transfer it to a lightly floured surface.

Step 3

Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

Step 5

Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a 10-12 inch circle on a piece of parchment paper. If desired, fold the edges slightly to form a crust.

Step 6

Spread the vegan marinara sauce over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Step 7

Sprinkle the vegan mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

Step 8

Top the pizza with sliced bell peppers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, and black olives.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves and crushed red pepper flakes.

Step 11

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Vegan Veggie Delight Pizza while warm!
