Greek Vegetarian Pizza Recipes

IT'S ALL GREEK TO ME PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°F and then turn it off. Place a pizza stone in the oven while it is preheating. (If you don't have a pizza stone, you can place the pizza dough on a 15 × 13-inch baking sheet)
• To make the crust: Combine the warm water and yeast in a small bowl. Add the coconut nectar and stir to combine. Let the yeast mixture sit for about 8 minutes, or until foamy.
• Whisk together the sorghum flour, tapioca flour, amaranth flour, xanthan gum, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the middle.
• Add the applesauce to the yeast mixture, stir to combine, and pour into the flour mixture.
• Mix the dough together and form it into a ball.
• Place the dough in a bowl. Cover the bowl with a clean dishtowel, place it in the oven, and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour.
• To make the feta cheeze: Combine the tofu, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, oregano, and thyme in a small bowl. Let this mixture marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
• After the dough has risen, remove the dishtowel and place the dough on a lightly floured piece of parchment paper with another piece of parchment on top of the dough. Roll it out into a circle about 11 inches in diameter. Remove the top piece of parchment.
• Place the pizza dough with just the bottom parchment paper on the heated pizza stone.
• Preheat the oven to 500°F.
• Bake the pizza crust for 10 minutes.
• Take the cheeze out of the refrigerator and drain the liquid.
• To use the other Greek toppings: Take the pizza dough out of the oven, top with the onions, tomatoes, spinach, olives, nutritional yeast, oregano, red pepper flakes, and feta cheeze.
• To make the glaze: Mix together the molasses, water, and nutritional yeast in a small bowl. Brush the perimeter of the pizza dough with the glaze.
• Place the pizza back in the oven until the crust is a light golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the pizza stone from the oven to a wire rack, and let sit for 15 minutes before cutting the pizza into 6 slices. This allows the dough to come together without getting gummy.
