    First made in Naples, Italy, pizza became a European staple. A visit to Europe, particularly in the region of Italy, would seem incomplete without having to taste the different flavors of pizzas in store for both locals and foreigners. Over the years, pizza changed both in texture and in taste. Many flavors have been added, but one thing seems to be the same, and that is the love for cheesy pizza. From pepperoni to meat and veggie, pizza will not be your classic pizza without the addition of any type of cheese. Just like a crisp crust, cheesy toppings have become a norm too.

    What's in This Roasted Vegetable Pizza Recipe?

    Plain Flour. In making your pizza dough, be sure to include plain flour as its base ingredient. The plain flour gives a slightly chewy but crispy pizza.

    Dried Yeast. It is the primary leavening agent in the dough, which means it is responsible for the rising of the pizza dough. The best pizza dough recipes make a dough that rises fast, resulting in a crust that is light and bubbly.

    Sugar. It aids in the creation of a fine crumb for pizza crust as well as the tenderization of the dough, making it more appetizing. Sugar also helps to brown the crust.

    Olive Oil. The texture, flavor, and moisture of your homemade pizza crust are all improved by the addition of olive oil.

    
     

    Vegetables: Bell Pepper, Onion, Eggplant, Zucchini. The main toppings for this recipe! Help yourself to a bunch of these veggies; fresh, mild in flavor, slightly sweet.

    Pizza Sauce. Your pizza will taste incomplete without your dripping favorite pizza sauce.

    Mozzarella Cheese. Enjoy an extra cheesy pizza with the addition of mozzarella cheese! You may use cheddar or any other cheese if you want.

    
     

    Fresh Basil. Sprinkle fresh basil at the end of the recipe for a balanced sweet and savory finishing.

    How To Make Roasted Vegetable Pizza?

    Make the pizza crust
    Make the pizza crust

    Make the pizza crust:
    Put the plain flour, salt, yeast, and sugar in a bowl and mix.

    
     

    Add the olive oil and water, use your hands to bring the dough together.

    Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 1-2 minutes.

    Put the dough into a lightly greased bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and put it in a warm place for 45-50 minutes to double in size.

    Now, roll the dough out on a floured surface to your preferred thickness, then put it in a well-greased baking tray.

    Prepare the veggies

    Prepare your roasted vegetables:
    Preheat the oven to 200C.

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place all the vegetables on the baking sheet in a single layer.

    Drizzle with oil and sprinkle some salt and pepper on top.

    Bake for 15-20 minutes or until slightly roasted (don't overcook as they will cook again with the pizza).

    Take out of the oven and set aside.

    Add the toppings:
    Preheat the oven to 240C.

    Brush the pizza crust with a tablespoon of oil to prevent the filling from making the crust soggy.

    Spread the pizza sauce evenly on top of the crust. Then, scatter the mozzarella cheese, and arrange the roasted vegetables on top.

    Bake for 14-15 minutes, then remove from the oven.

    Sprinkle some fresh basil on top, slice and serve.

    Top Tips!

    • It is important not to overcook the vegetables. Roasting the vegetables before using them as a pizza topping will give them a great roasted flavor. Remember that the vegetables will continue to cook on top of the pizza.
    • Brush the top of the crust with a mixture of olive oil and garlic. Adding it to your pizza will significantly improve its flavor. Simply pour extra virgin olive oil into a plate and stir in minced garlic until everything is well-combined. Then, before you add any other toppings, brush some of the sauce over the crust, being sure to get some garlic bits on the crust as well. You can use only oil if you don't like garlic.

    Recipe Variations

    • Consider adding roasted potatoes for your pizza toppings. The potatoes will give you a somewhat umami flavor but with a pleasant savory taste.
    • Sprinkle salt and freshly ground black pepper in your roasted vegetables for more flavorful pizza toppings.
    • Play around with your pizza sauce a little. Combine marinara sauce with your pizza sauce for a more robust pizza flavor.
    • You may use whole wheat flour instead of plain flour in making the pizza crust.

    Serving Suggestions

    Grab a bottle or two of cold soda for a chill and relaxing Friday night with this Roasted Vegetable Pizza. Green salad or pasta bolognese is also a good pair for this pizza, wash it down with your favorite drink!

    Recipe FAQs

    Are there any other vegan-friendly ingredients I can add for the pizza topping?

    For a meaty texture without adding actual meat in this recipe, you may consider adding roasted mushrooms for your pizza toppings. They have a texture akin to that of meat, but they are completely vegan!

    How do I store my leftover pizza?

    Place the leftover pizza on a plate and then simply wrap it in parchment paper before storing it in the fridge for one to five days. A gentle reminder, however that is refrigerating and reheating the pizza will not give you the same texture it had when it was fresh out of the oven.
