Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Italian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 whole grain English muffins
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup vegan mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup sliced olives
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Carefully split the whole grain English muffins in half using a fork, creating a clean, even surface for topping.
- Place the English muffin halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Using a spoon, spread approximately 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce evenly across each English muffin half, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle the vegan mozzarella cheese generously over the marinara sauce, covering the surface completely.
- Distribute sliced bell peppers and olives evenly across the topped English muffins.
- Dust the pizzas with dried oregano and garlic powder to enhance the flavor profile.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges of the English muffins are golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes to allow the cheese to set and prevent burning.
- Transfer to a serving plate, slice if desired, and enjoy your vegan English muffin pizzas while hot.
Tips
- • For extra crispy muffins, lightly toast them before adding toppings • Use parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking • Experiment with different vegan cheese brands to find your favorite melting texture • Let the pizzas cool slightly to prevent burning your mouth and allow the cheese to set • For added nutrition, try sprinkling some nutritional yeast on top for a cheesy, nutty flavor • If you like it spicy, add some red pepper flakes or sliced jalapeños • Feel free to customize with your favorite vegan toppings like mushrooms, spinach, or vegan pepperoni • Use a pizza stone if you want an even crispier base • Store any leftover pizzas in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best results
