Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare the Pizza Dough. Combine flour, water, yeast, and salt in a mixing bowl. Knead until smooth and let it rise for about an hour until it doubles in size.
  • Step 2: Preheat the Oven. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone inside if using.
  • Step 3: Prepare the Pizza Sauce. Combine canned crushed tomatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Step 4: Shape the Dough. Roll out the risen dough on a floured surface into your desired shape and thickness.
  • Step 5: Assemble the Pizza. Transfer rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone, spread sauce evenly, and sprinkle vegan mozzarella on top.
  • Step 6: Bake Your Pizza. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is melted.
  • Step 7: Slice and Serve. Let the pizza cool for a minute, slice with a pizza cutter, and serve hot with your favorite toppings.
