Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the olive oil and water to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.
Roll the dough out to form a 12-inch round pizza base and transfer to a pizza pan or baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce with garlic powder, dried oregano, dried basil, and red pepper flakes.
Spread the seasoned tomato sauce evenly over the pizza crust.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
Scatter the cooked bacon, sliced red onion, and sliced bell pepper evenly over the sauce.
Sprinkle the nutritional yeast evenly over the toppings for a cheesy, nutty flavor.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are cooked through.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
