Vegan pizza with is one of my favourites on a lazy weekend. It's really easy to make, takes only 10 minutes to prepare and the rest is done by your oven. A real treat and the home-made dairy-free cashew cheese is a much healthier and delicious alternative to most of the shop-bought vegan cheese that are out there. I also made a video on how to make it.
I often get vegan pizzas in restaurants that have no cheese on them. Although more and more places now offer vegan cheese like Zizzi or this stylish Italian restaurant O'ver on Southwark Street. But for me it's important that food doesn't just taste amazing but is also healthy (mostly at least, cakes and chocolate are an exception in my book hehe). So I always make my pizzas with cashew cheese. Cashews are rich in vitamin E and a good source of minerals, particularly magnesium and zinc. And when blended with a few simple ingredients it tastes surprisingly like cheese!
Check out my vegan pizza video above; I made a simple step by step guide on how to make the cashew cheese and the toppings of the pizza so you can see how easy it is!

Put all cashew cheese ingredients into a smmoothie blender for roughly a minute (or until smooth) until you get a nice thick and creamy cheese sauce. Carefully add a tad more water if needed.
Get the vegan pizza base ready. I bought a ready-made one and not frozen. If you buy a frozen one check out the packaging instructions on how long to bake it.
Now top it with cashew cheese and sprinkle some oregano and garlic powder on it (alternatively you can also use finely chopped garlic). Then add the tomatoes, mushrooms, artichokes, green pepper, red onion, black olives. Finally drizzle some olive oil on top, sprinkle oregano add a dash of salt on it as well.

Vegan Pizza Recipe {homemade & Easy}
The pizza dough (its my easy 20 minute pizza dough) doesn’t need much kneading. Just bring the dough together and let it rise for 15 mins, then shape it using some flour. This dough is shaped easily as it does not have much gluten development (which develops with longer kneading) and hence is not the stretchy traditional pizza dough, so no struggling to roll it out!
The pizza sauce is a few ingredients. The cashew mozzarella cheese sauce is the sauce from my Mushroom Quesadilla. Just blend, and simmer to thicken, and use. No chill time to let it set. The final result we want is a cheesy melty topping, So keep the state as thick saucy to begin with! problem solved.
This pizza and the mozzarella is adapted from my margherita from Everyday Kitchen book. The mozzarella recipe in the book can be set into slices, or balls or whatever and used wherever. Lets make this version for your pizza fix.
Mozzarella Cashew Cheese
Preheat the oven. Soak the cashews for the mozzarella in hot water if you havent already. Mix the warm water with yeast and 1 tbsp flour. Mix well and let sit for 2 mins. Mix the salt and semolina into the rest of the flour. Add the flour and oil to the yeast mixture and mix.
Oil your hands and bring the dough together till just about smooth. Dont knead it more than a few seconds. Cover with a towel and let it sit near the preheating oven for 15 mins.
Drain the cashews. Blend all the ingredients under mozzarella cream until smooth. Add to a skillet over medium heat.Cook to thicken evenly. 3 to 5 mins. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking at the bottom and lumping.
Vegan Green Goddess Pizza

Oil your hands and transfer dough to parchment lined baking sheet. Using flour shape the dough, then spread using your hands. Keep spreading to make a large pizza or make 2 small pizzas.
Spread the pizza sauce all over. Add some fresh basil and place tomato slices over the basil. Add spoonfuls of the mozzarella cream.

You can use macadamia nuts instead of cashews in this mozzarella cream. Or use my nut-free alfredo sauce. Add 1-2 tsp flour in th sauce to thicken and then use.
Freeze: Freeze the pizza dough with the sauce and tomatoes or veggies if using, and without the cheese. Freeze on a tray, once fully frozen, store in an airtight ziplock with least amount of air around the pizza.
