The Best Vegan Frozen Pizza
Ingredients
- 1 Batch Vegan pizza dough, homemade* or store bought
- 1/2 Cup Pizza sauce, homemade or store bought
- 8 oz Vegan mozzalla, I used Daiya shreds
Instructions
- Make the pizza dough according to recipe instructions.
- While the pizza dough rises, make the tempeh sausage if using. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet on medium-high.
- Crumble the tempeh into the skillet then pour the soy sauce and liquid smoke over the crumbles. Then sprinkle all the seasonings over the tempeh. Toss to combine everything evenly.
- Saute, reducing heat as needed until the tempeh crumbles are golden brown. About 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Once the pizza dough has gone through its first rise, cut the dough into 4 equal pieces if you are making 4 mini pizzas, 2 if you are making 2 medium pizzas, or role into one large ball if making one large pizza.
- Let the dough rise for about 15-20 more minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425℉.
- Roll or press out into circles on a floured surface.
- Place the dough rounds on pizza pans, sprayed with non-stick spray.
- Par-bake the crust for 4-5 minutes, remove from the oven and let cool.
- Once the dough has cooled, spread pizza sauce over the dough, then sprinkle with the vegan cheese, then top with the tempeh sausage, or whatever topping you want.
- Place the pizza(s) in the freezer uncovered for about 2 hours, then wrap each pizza in plastic wrap, then freeze until ready to use.
- When you want to make a pizza, preheat the oven to 450℉ and bake for 15-16 minutes or until golden brown.
