This fully vegan pizza toast recipe is perfect for when you are craving pizza but don’t want to spend a huge amount of time making pizza from scratch or don’t want to wait for delivery.
Notes
I used the instant cashew cheese by kempo, an online shop in Japan, because the product is super convenient. Just mix it with some water and voilà, you have the perfect cheese replacement! I also added extra nutritional yeast. But if you don’t live in Japan, you can use white almond butter or cashew butter instead. Just add some nutritional yeast and mix it with water little by little until you have a kind of runny but not too runny consistency. Alternatively, you could just buy any vegan cheese you like. For veggies, you can easily customize and switch out ones you don’t like with your favourites.
Ingredients
(for 4 toasts)
4 slices of vegan toast (I used whole-grain)
8 tablespoons tomato puree
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
1/3 of a small zucchini
¼ bell pepper
1 tomato
2 tablespoons corn
8 olives
1 tablespoon of olive oil
3 tablespoons of the kempo instant cashew cheese powder (alternative: cashew butter)
1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast
Salt & pepper to taste
Method
Mix the tomato puree, maple syrup, herbs, as well as some salt and pepper in a small bowl and then spread it evenly on the toasts.
Chop all the veggies and the olives into tiny cubes and mix them in a bowl together with the corn and olive oil.
Place the veggies on each toast. If not all of them fit, you can store the left-overs in the fridge for another pizza toast or salad later.
Now it is time for the cheese replacement. If you use the instant cheese from kempo, mix it with the nutritional yeast and add 6 tablespoons of water. If the consistency is too thick to spread it on top of the veggies on the toasts, add a little more water until it is more easily spreadable. Then spread it on each toast.
Then bake the toasts in a toaster oven for ten minutes.
Enjoy!
