Homemade Vegan Pizza (No Yeast)

This is a super delicious vegan pizza (no yeast needed) recipe made with a special creamy sauce.  This is a thin crust pizza, and it tastes amazing because of its crispiness and all the toppings on it! The oat flour crust makes it gluten-free, but you can also sub in whole wheat flour as well.  I call this a super filling, healthy, and savory pizza that you can enjoy as a meal or as a heavy snack.

Recipe:

*Preheat oven to 375°F

Ingredients (for crust):

• 2 1/2 cups oat flour
• 3 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp neutral oil
• 2/3 to 1 cup of water

Ingredients (for toppings and sauce):

• Chickpeas
• Cherry tomatoes
• Broccoli
• Fresh basil
• 1 avocado

Method:

1. Mix the dry ingredients for the crust in a bowl.
2. Add the oil and 2/3 cup water then stir until it forms a ball.
3. If the dough is dry, slowly incorporate more water. The ball should not be sticky.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 3 minutes.
5. Roll out the dough into the desired shape.
6. Meanwhile, smash your avocado, lemon juice, and sugar in a bowl.
7. Add your chickpeas to the mixture and stir.
8. Top your pizza crust with your chickpea mixture, vegetables, cheese (if desired), tomato sauce, or other toppings you want.
9. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
10. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before cutting, and enjoy!
