Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
Roll out the pre-made vegan pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness.
Place the rolled-out dough onto a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced button, cremini, and shiitake mushrooms to the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and the moisture has evaporated. Season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Sprinkle half of the shredded vegan mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce.
Distribute the sautéed mushroom mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Sprinkle the remaining vegan mozzarella cheese on top of the mushrooms.
Sprinkle dried oregano over the entire pizza for added flavor.
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Garnish the pizza with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your homemade vegan mushroom pizza!
