In a bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until the dough starts to form.
Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 475Β°F (245Β°C) and line a pizza pan or baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough and roll it out into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer it to the prepared pizza pan.
Place the dairy-free mozzarella cheese about 1 inch from the edge of the dough in a circle. Fold the edges of the dough over the cheese and press to seal, creating a stuffed crust.
Spread the dairy-free pizza sauce over the center of the pizza, leaving the crust edges uncovered.
Top the pizza with fresh basil leaves, sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, and red onion.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning over the toppings for added flavor.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are cooked through.
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a minute, slice, and serve immediately. Enjoy your dairy-free stuffed crust pizza!
