1

Prepare the pizza dough

First, let's make the base of our Vegan Greek Pizza. Mix 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of instant yeast, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl. Slowly add 3/4 cups of warm water and stir until the dough starts to come together. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

2

Prepare the topping

While the dough is rising, let's prepare the delicious topping for our Vegan Greek Pizza. Slice 1 small red onion, 1 green bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper, and 1 medium-sized tomato into thin rounds. Olives are an essential part of Greek cuisine, so grab a handful of your favorite olives and slice them. Finally, crumble 1 cup of vegan feta cheese. If you can't find vegan feta cheese, you can also use a vegan cheese alternative with a slightly salty taste.

3

Assemble and bake the pizza

Once the dough has risen, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into your desired pizza shape and thickness. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Now comes the fun part—time to assemble our Vegan Greek Pizza! Start by spreading a thin layer of marinara sauce or tomato paste over the dough. Sprinkle the sliced onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, and olives evenly. Finally, top it off with the crumbled vegan feta cheese. Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden-brown and the cheese is slightly melted and bubbly.

Enjoy your Greek masterpiece!

Once the pizza is out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together. Slice it up, serve it with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like basil or oregano, and get ready for a mouthful of Mediterranean paradise. Enjoy your Vegan Greek Pizza with friends, family, or simply as a delicious treat to indulge in. Opa!
