Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 3 3/4 cup flour approx.
- 1 pkg yeast
- 1 1/2 cup lukewarm water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vegan sugar
- 1-3 tablespoon olive oil
- topping: tomato sauce, oregano, garlic powder, mushrooms, olives, green peppers, onions
- vegan soy cheese
- anything else you like
Directions:
This is an easy way to make a home-baked pizza in a short time. Dissolve the yeast in the
lukewarm water with the vegan sugar and let stand for 5 minutes. Mix in the oil, salt, and 1
cup of flour. Add the rest of the flour a cup at a time until it becomes too hard to stir
with a wooden spoon. Turn out onto a floured counter and knead for 8-10 minutes, until
it's smooth and elastic. Have your oven preheating at 375 while you're kneading the dough
(I have my pizza stone in the oven warming up). Let the dough rest for a few minutes
while preparing the green peppers, olives, mushrooms, onions, etc. When you have all the
ingredients ready, roll the dough out into a large circle and place on the stone or baking
sheet--sprinkle cornmeal on it first--and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough.
I then add my seasonings (I even like a touch of lemon pepper).
Follow this with the olives, mushrooms, and onions, green peppers and whatever else
you like. Top with the soy cheese. On the baking stone, it usually takes only about 15
minutes or bake until the cheese browns slightly. My husband likes a thinner crust so
sometimes I will make two smaller pies instead of one large one.
