Broccolini & Shallot Vegan White Pizza
Restaurant-quality pizza with easy to find ingredients - this Broccolini & Shallot Vegan White Pizza is loaded with seasoned white sauce, crispy shallots and perfectly cooked broccolini.
Ingredients
- corn meal
- 16 oz pre-made pizza dough*
- 8 oz vegan cream cheese
- 1/2 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes or to taste
- vegetable broth
- 1 tsp olive oil plus more for topping
- 1-2 shallots thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic peeled and diced
- salt & pepper to taste
- 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
- 5-8 broccolini spears hard stems removed
- 1 lemon zested
- pine nuts, fresh basil for serving
Instructions
- Spread some cornmeal out on a cutting board and place dough on top of it. Allow dough to come to room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees and grease a baking sheet.
- Combine vegan cream cheese, garlic salt, oregano and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Slowly add vegetable broth to the mixture (1 tablespoon at a time) until a smooth sauce is formed. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add shallots, garlic and a pinch of salt & pepper to the pan and sauté until tender (approx. 3 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.
- Spread the dough out on the baking sheet until desired shape is formed.
- Add sauce to the dough and spread out to the edge - leaving half an inch of crust.
- Top sauce with garlic/shallot mixture, followed by red onion slices and broccolini. Place in the oven and bake until crust is brown and broccolini is tender (approx. 15-20 minutes, depending on how thick your crust is). Remove from the oven.
- Top with lemon zest, pine nuts, fresh basil and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Slice, serve and enjoy!
Notes
*Prep time does not include the time to allow dough to come to room temperature. I like using Trader Joe's pre-made dough, but many grocery stores carry pre-made dough that is vegan-friendly.
