Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and position a rack in the lower third of the oven.
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness and shape it to fit your baking tray or pizza stone.
Brush the olive oil evenly over the surface of the rolled-out pizza dough.
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced button and cremini mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they release their moisture and become golden brown.
Stir in the fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Sprinkle the nutritional yeast over the tomato sauce to add a cheesy flavor.
Distribute the sautéed mushrooms evenly over the sauced pizza dough.
Sprinkle the dairy-free mozzarella shreds over the top of the mushrooms.
Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
