Instructions
Preparation Steps:
- Prepare your pizza dough by combining flour, yeast, water, and salt in a mixing bowl. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. For gluten-free, use a gluten-free blend.
- Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
- While the dough is rising, mix together crushed tomatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper for the sauce.
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone in the oven if using.
- Dust a clean surface with semolina flour and roll out the dough to your desired thickness.
- Transfer the rolled-out dough to the baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, add vegan pepperoni, and top with vegan mozzarella.
- Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, slice, and serve hot.
Notes
- Use whole wheat flour for a healthier crust.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat slices in a toaster oven for the best texture.
