This Tomato Basil Pizza with “Everything Bagel” Crust is the perfect at-home pizza that will satisfy all your cravings! I used the pizza dough recipe from my new book Liv B’s Easy Everyday, but you can use store-bought too if you want. Its brushed with some olive oil, sprinkled with “everything but the bagel” seasoning (homemade, click here) and layered with fresh cherry tomatoes, garlic, basil and some vegan cheese. I used Real Fake Meats cheddar for this, but you can use your fav or even go no cheese. Its so flavourful on its own!
Every bite is filled with delicious savoury, garlicky goodness. It is such a nice change from your typical tomato sauce pizza. It feels extra special and looks really beautiful too.
We like to bake the pizza on a fairly high heat (around 425 F) on a dark sheet pan. It’s the key to a perfectly golden crust that isn’t overdone underneath! The pizza also cooks really quick, in about 15 minutes, so its basically as fast as ordering delivery! And the best part is, you get to eat it fresh! No soggy, cardboard-scented pizza for us.
