Vegan Cast Iron Pizza

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Servings 2

Ingredients

  • all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 10-15 oz fresh pizza dough I use about 10 oz for a 12 inch cast iron
  • 1/4 cup canned tomato sauce or more to your liking
  • 1/3 cup vegan mozzarella see notes for link to recipe
  • 1/4 cup roasted cherry tomatoes see notes for link to recipe
  • fresh basil for topping
  • fresh cracked black pepper
  • kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F

  2. On a clean, dry surface throw about 2-3 pinches of all purpose flour to cover your surface. Place about 1/2 to 3/4 of your pizza dough on top of the flour and stretch it out until its about the same size of your skillet.

  3. Place about 1 tablespoon of olive oil on your skillet and spread around the bottom and the sides. Place your dough inside the skillet.

  4. Heat your skillet on the stovetop on medium-high heat for about 3 minutes or until the bottom begins to slightly brown. While you're waiting for the bottom to crisp, spoon on some pizza sauce and spread around leaving about 1 inch for the crust. Add small dollops of the vegan cheese and roasted cherry tomatoes.

  5. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-14 minutes. Remove from the skillet and place on a cutting board. Let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing it--trust me, it will burn your mouth otherwise!

  6. Top with chopped basil, a little salt and pepper and enjoy!
