Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch crust) Vegan pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Vegan tomato pizza sauce
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup Vegan mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Vegan Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up for a crispier crust.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the vegan pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. If you prefer, you can press the dough out with your hands.
Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if you’re using a pizza stone.
Brush the olive oil over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Spread the vegan tomato pizza sauce evenly over the dough, avoiding the crust edges.
Sprinkle the shredded vegan mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring even coverage.
Top the pizza with fresh spinach leaves. They will wilt during baking, so it’s okay to slightly overlap them.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using) over the spinach for added flavor.
If desired, sprinkle vegan Parmesan cheese on top for an extra cheesy layer.
Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven. If using a pizza stone, slide the pizza onto the stone. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing.
Slice into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your vegan spinach and cheese pizza!
