Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (about 14-16 oz) pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 1.5 cups dairy-free shredded cheese
- 8 oz, cooked and crumbled Italian sausage
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 0.5 medium, thinly sliced red onion
- 0.5 medium, thinly sliced bell pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon (optional) red pepper flakes
- 0.25 cup, roughly chopped fresh basil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the rolled dough to a piece of parchment paper for easier transfer to the oven.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and minced garlic, then brush this mixture over the entire surface of the dough.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border for the crust edge.
Sprinkle the dairy-free shredded cheese over the sauce to cover evenly.
Top with the cooked and crumbled Italian sausage, followed by the sliced red onions and bell peppers.
Sprinkle the dried oregano and red pepper flakes (if using) over the top.
Carefully slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil before slicing and serving.
