Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Rolling Pin
  • baking tray
  • oven

Ingredients
  

Pizza Dough

  • 2.5 cups self-rising flour
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

BBQ Cauliflower

  • ½ medium head cauliflower broken into florets
  • ¾ cup barbecue sauce or less for a milder BBQ taste
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

Pizza Sauce

  • ¾ cup hummus
  • cup tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Garlic Yogurt Sauce

  • ¾ cup unsweetened soy yogurt
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

Pizza Preparation

  • Combine all of the pizza dough ingredients in a large bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Transfer to a floured surface and knead until you have a smooth, firm dough. Add a sprinkle of flour if too wet, or a small splash of water if too dry.
  • Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Add the cauliflower florets to a lined baking tray.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the BBQ sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Pour half of the sauce over the florets, and toss to coat. Reserve the other half of the BBQ sauce for later. Bake the florets for 20 minutes, flipping once halfway.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the pizza sauce ingredients.
  • Lightly coat a work surface with flour. Divide the dough into two balls, as this recipe makes two large pizza crusts.
  • Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to the size of your baking tray.
  • Divide the hummus-based pizza sauce over both pizza bases, and spread it out evenly. Leave about 1 cm around the edges of the pizza uncovered for the crust.
  • When the cauliflower is removed from the oven, pour over the remaining BBQ sauce. Toss to coat.
  • Divide and distribute the BBQ cauliflower florets over top of both pizzas.
  • Bake the pizzas in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden. Rotate the position of the pizzas in the oven once at the halfway point.
  • Meanwhile, combine the yogurt, garlic, and salt in a bowl.
  • When the pizzas are ready, drizzle some of the garlic yogurt sauce on top, and sprinkle with sliced green onion, if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

Self-rising flour is regular all-purpose flour with baking powder, and sometimes salt added. It can be found at most grocery stores. Aim to use a plant-based yogurt that is fortified with calcium.
