Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, dairy-free)
- 1 cup Raw cashews
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Fresh mushrooms (e.g., cremini or shiitake), thinly sliced
- 1 cup Arugula
- 1 tablespoon Truffle oil
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
Soak the raw cashews in hot water for 15-20 minutes or until softened. Drain and rinse well.
In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Adjust seasoning to taste.
On a floured surface, stretch or roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a floured pizza peel if using a stone.
Spread the cashew cream sauce evenly across the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the sliced mushrooms until soft and lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Distribute the sautéed mushrooms evenly over the cashew cream sauce.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crisp.
Remove the pizza from the oven and top with fresh arugula. Drizzle with truffle oil and sprinkle with black pepper.
Slice and serve immediately, enjoying your dairy-free truffle pizza!
