9 Plant-Based Pizza Recipes That Are Easy to Make at Home
1. My Favorite Vegan Pizza
Garlic-herb crust, tons of sautéed veggies and a magical vegan Parmesan make this one an obvious choice. (And that vegan Parm? It’s only four ingredients.)
2. Gluten-free Summer Salad Pizza With Socca Chickpea Crust
Socca is like a gluten-free crepe made with chickpea flour. Who would’ve known it makes an excellent pizza crust?
3. Hummus Pizza With Arugula And Wild Mushrooms
Creamy hummus is a satisfying replacement that mimics the texture of melty mozzarella. It’s also packed with protein and tastes delish.
4. Perfect Vegan Margherita Pizza
We almost couldn’t tell that this plant-based pizza wasn’t made in a wood-fired oven at a fancy pizza restaurant, thanks to homemade cashew-based mozzarella and a deliciously chewy crust.
5. Butternut Squash Veggie Pizza
On the other hand, this dish is proof that you can satisfy your craving for a slice even without a vegan cheese substitute. We’re living for those crispy chickpeas.
6. Pineapple Veggie Lover’s Pizza
Paging all Hawaiian pizza fans (we know you’re out there): You won’t even miss the ham with all those veggie toppings.
7. Cauliflower Pizza
Traditional pizza crust is usually plant-based anyway, but you can take your pie one step further with a homemade cauliflower crust if you want. (With your trusty food processor, it’s easy.)
8. Easy Vegan Tortilla Pizzas
Or lean into the convenience that is a whole-grain tortilla. It makes a worthy swap for thin-crust ’za.
9. Vegan Cauliflower Pizza Crust
This pie has not one but two forms of cauliflower, in the crust and as a topping. Too much cauli? No such thing.
