In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
Add the water and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough back in the bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
While the dough is rising, prepare the dairy-free base by blending the silken tofu, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, and onion powder in a food processor until smooth. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 220Β°C (428Β°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the sliced onions until they are caramelized, about 10 minutes.
Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface to fit the baking sheet.
Transfer the rolled dough to the lined baking sheet.
Spread the tofu cream evenly over the base of the dough.
Distribute the caramelized onions and smoked tofu cubes over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy.
Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped chives and black pepper to taste.
Cut into slices and serve immediately.
