Ingredients

Dough:

  • 1 packet dry active yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 3 cups flour + 3 Tablespoons
  • 6 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Toppings:

  • ½-1 cups marinara sauce
  • 1 8-ounce package vegan mozzarella cheese
  • 2-3 cups coconut bacon

  • 2 jalapeños, sliced
Instructions
  1. For the Dough: Preheat oven to 400º. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Set aside.
  2. Place yeast, sugar and water in a large bowl. Whisk to combine, until yeast is dissolved. Let sit for 10 minutes.

  8. Next, sprinkle coconut bacon on top of vegan cheese. Place pineapple and jalapeño evenly across pizza.
  9. Return pizza to oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes.
