It's non-dairy/vegan, featuring my favorite cashew cheese recipe! You won't even miss the cheese!

Instructions

  1. TO MAKE CASHEW CHEESE: Add the following to your blender and run until smooth (no grittiness!): 1 cup cashews – soaked in 2 cups water for 30 min – hour, juice from 1/2 lemon, 1/2 cup water, 1/2 tsp dried basil, salt and pepper, to taste. Blended? Done!

  2. Preheat oven to 425 F.

  3. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with olive oil spray (or I just rub it with olive oil… either way!) Set aside.

  4. Roll out your dough on a floured surface, and transfer to the baking sheet. It doesn’t have to be perfect… I mean, look at mine.

  5. Use the remaining olive oil to rub along the crust edges.

  6. In a small bowl, mix crushed tomatoes, sugar, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Spoon it onto the dough.

  7. Dollop cashew cheese onto pizza.

  8. Cook at 425 F for about 25-30 minutes, or until crust is golden.

  9. Add fresh basil and serve.
