Vegan Pizza Bread Recipe

Ingredients:

1 store-bought pizza dough
Vegan mozzarella
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning and herbs
1 jar pizza sauce
Fresh basil

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F.

2. Start with your store-bought pizza dough and cut it into pieces. Brown recommends cutting it into 13 pieces.

3. Next, add a piece of vegan mozzarella to the center of each dough ball and roll so the cube of mozzarella is hidden in the dough.

4. Place the dough balls onto a pizza pan or baking sheet, like the reusable Silpat, and leave space between each one. In the spaces, add more vegan mozzarella for cheesy goodness!

5. Combine your olive oil and Italian herbs, then brush it over the dough balls.

6. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes.

7. When you're ready to serve, top the pizza bread with fresh basil and add a side of pizza sauce for dipping.

8. Serve and enjoy your yummy, vegan pizza bread appetizer!
