Equipment
Ingredients
- ¼ cup + 2 teaspoons vital wheat gluten
- ¼ cup + 1 teaspoon all purpose or bread flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup tomato or marinara sauce I used Rao's
- ¼ cup vegan mozzarella I used Follow Your Heart
Makes: 9.5 x 6inch rectangle
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: vital wheat gluten, flour, baking powder, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast.
- Add the water and apple cider vinegar, then mix until a wet dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly greased eighth sheet pan and use the back of a spoon to spread it out evenly. The dough will be thin and may have small holes, that’s okay. You can also spread it out onto a larger sheet pan and make it into a circle if you like. I just find it works best in an eighth sheet pan.
- Bake the crust for 5 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, add your sauce and vegan cheese, then bake for another 15 minutes at the same temperature.
