Instructions for Vegan Margherita

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pizza Base

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out your favorite pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  2. 2

    Add the Sauce

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the rolled out pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  3. 3

    Add Garlic and Seasoning

    In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with olive oil. Brush this mixture over the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Layer the Toppings

    Sprinkle the vegan mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by the sliced fresh tomatoes and fresh basil leaves.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired, cut into slices, and serve hot.
