Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the zucchinis thoroughly and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Lay the zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
Bake the zucchini slices in the oven for 5 minutes to soften them slightly.
Remove the zucchini rounds from the oven and add a small dollop of marinara sauce on top of each slice, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle a small amount of dairy-free shredded mozzarella or cheese alternative over the marinara sauce.
Top each slice with halved cherry tomatoes and a garnish of chopped basil leaves.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese alternative is melted, and the edges of the zucchini are slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the zucchini pizzas cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve as a healthy appetizer, main dish, or snack. Enjoy your dairy-free zucchini pizzas!
