This is an easy pizza to make and will please even the non vegans–I guarantee. The recipe makes about 6 personal-sized pizzas so I tend to either refrigerate/freeze half the dough for another night, or make up all 6 pizzas for the next day’s lunch.
INGREDIENTS:
Dough:
2 C flour
1 C whole wheat flour
1 pkg quick-rise dry yeast
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried rosemary
3/4 C hot tap water, divided
2 Tbs olive oil
The rest:
1-14oz can artichokes, chopped
6-oz jar sun-dried tomatoes, diced
8-oz vegan mozzarella, shredded
1-1/2 C pesto
Optional toppings: mushrooms, olives, spinach, roasted red peppers
DIRECTIONS:
In a small bowl, combine yeast with 1/4 C of the hot tap water; set aside. In a large bowl, combine flours, salt, and rosemary. Add yeast and olive oil to the flour mixture and combine, adding the remaining 1/2 C of hot tap water. You may need a little more. Once ingredients are thoroughly combined, place in a large greased bowl and let rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400. Punch the dough down and knead for 5 minutes. Divide into 6 sections; roll out each section and place on a greased pizza pan or baking sheet. Using a fork, stick each piece of dough several times. Bake for 4 minutes.
Spread each baked crust with a layer of pesto, then top with cheese, artichokes, and sun-dried tomatoes. Bake 8-10 minutes. Enjoy!
