Why You’ll Love This Vegan Pizza Recipe

• Full of Flavor: Full of savory deliciousness at every bite.

• The Perfect Healthy Meal: The only pizza recipe that you can get away with that’s actually made with good-for-you ingredients.

Ingredients

• Organic Chickpea Crust: This protein pizza crust is made of chickpea flour, tapioca flour, extra virgin olive oil, and filtered water. Nothing too fancy, so that the flavors of the toppings stand out.
• Organic Garlic Olive Oil Sauce: A simple, yet spicy combination is whisked together to dress the pizza.
• Organic Yellow Onion: A regular medium to large onion works well for this pizza
• Organic Baby Bella Mushrooms: I suggest brown, baby bella mushrooms, also known as cremini mushrooms, for the best flavor! 
• Organic Asparagus: Fresh & trimmed!
• Organic Vegan Mozzarella: Sliced thinly and topped post baking. For this pizza recipe, I used Miyoko’s Creamery Organic Cashew Milk Mozzarella. It’s made with real ingredients and there is nothing funky in it.

How To Make

1. Pizza Crust. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cover a baking sheet with baking paper. Add chickpea flour, tapioca starch, and sea salt to taste to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Add the filtered water, ¼ a cup at a time, whisking really thoroughly after each addition so as to avoid lumps. When all water is added, set mixture aside for 5 minutes to thicken slightly (it will still be runny). Pour the dough onto the baking sheet and spread with a spoon to an oval shaped base (5 mm). Bake the crust for about 10 – 15 minutes until the pizza crust is firm but not yet golden brown.
2. Garlic Olive Oil Sauce. Add all ingredients to a small mixing bowl & whisk until combined. 
3. Assemble. When the crust is done, spread the sauce on the pizza crust and top with the veggies. Bake for an additional 10 – 15 minutes.
4. Serve. Once the pizza is done baking, slice and enjoy!

Tips for Making this Healthy Vegan Pizza Recipe Perfectly

• Avoid Lumpy Batter: When preparing the pizza crust, first whisk together the dry ingredients, then SLOWLY mix in the water, ¼ cup at a time.
• Organic Vegan Mozzarella: For this pizza recipe, I used Miyoko’s Creamery Organic Cashew Milk Mozzarella. It’s made with real ingredients and there is nothing funky in it. The main difference though is that it doesn’t melt.
• Organic Vegetables: If you’re not a fan of mushrooms, ditch them, and if you don’t like asparagus, use traditional green beans. This healthy vegan pizza is truly customizable to your liking.

Storing & Reheating

As mentioned above, this recipe is perfect for leftovers & meal prep! Just be sure to let the pasta cool completely before transferring to an air-tight glass container. 

Fridge Storage. Transfer pizza slices to an air-tight glass container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days

Reheating. To reheat, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Transfer the pizza slices to an oven-safe plate. Place in the oven for about 10 – 15 minutes, until warmed through.
