These were a hit. Next time we will make our crusts a bit thinner and try mini pizza pockets but they were still so delicious! We used Daiya cheese shreds and Yves vegan Pepperoni! Being vegan doesn’t mean no more pizza! Aub loved helping us with this one. She even used cookie cutters and made herself and her little sister a special pizza. When kids help grocery shop or prepare the food, I find they enjoy it so much more!
For the Yummy Crust you will need:
-1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
-2 teaspoons of sugar or sweetener of choice
-1/2 teaspoon of salt
-1 package of dry yeast
-1 cup of oat flour (We grinded up regular oats)
-2-3 tablespoons of olive oil(or other oil)
=1 to 1 1 1/2 cups of warm water
-spices of choice, this is optional. Suggestions include oregano, garlic powder, onion powder and basil
Prepping the dough:
We put all of our dry goods into our food processor attachment on our ninja. Or mix in a large bowl. Slowly add oil and water while mixing until a soft,sticky dough ball is formed. Slightly oil a bowl and cover dough ball in it for a minimum of 10 minutes.
Sauce:
Use your favorite pizza sauce. We used Eden Organics Pizza sauce. I think it might be our new favorite. You can also use any canned pizza ot pasta sauce. Or make your own.
Toppings:
Top with your favorite toppings. We used …
-Mushrooms
-Daiya cheese shreds
-Onions
-Red peppers
-spinach
-garlic
-nutritional yeast
-Yves vegan pepperoni
I suggest sauteing mushrooms,onions and garlic before using as a topping. It gives it a nice flavor.
Preheat oven to 450 and bake mini pizzas for approximately 15 minutes. Keep an eye out, especially if you are like us and had 2 very special small, thin pizzas we couldn’t let burn!! Le cool 5 minutes and enjoy 🙂
