In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Stir gently and let sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add olive oil and salt to the yeast mixture. Then, slowly stir in the flour until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 475Β°F (245Β°C) and place a pizza stone inside, if using, or lightly grease a baking sheet.
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to your preferred thickness. Transfer it to a pizza peel dusted with cornmeal or directly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the rolled dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Top with sliced tomatoes, dairy-free mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil leaves.
Sprinkle garlic powder, dried oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes over the top.
Transfer the pizza onto the hot pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
Serve warm and enjoy your dairy-free classic tomato pizza!
