About Veggie Pizza

This Veg Pizza recipe is my go to recipe as I have made it so many times with perfect results. This Veggie Pizza Recipe yields best quality crust with cheesy pull perfect just like in restaurants so do try and enjoy!

The best pizzas are made in hot wood fired oven using a pizza stone. Our ovens cannot provide the same results but still pizza tastes great. I am sure you will not look back to order pizza again once you make them at home.

You can have the liberty to customize it according to your liking. The crust, the topping everything can be made according to your choice. Isn’t that great?! This recipe is food proof that even beginners can try and enjoy!

To have a goey cheese Instead of baking along with topping for the entire 20 minutes ,first baked the base alone for 12 minutes at 200 DEG c, then arranged the topping with cheese and baked again at 210 DEG C for 8 minutes…there u get your perfect pizza!!?

I love pizza…who doesn’t?! I was postponing this veg pizza recipe just for the reason that I had to write more. Also I wanted to compile all the pics with stepwise, and the variations.

With no doubt this recipe is a keeper but I made adjustments here and there each time and finally found the recipe for perfect pizza, So no more pizzas from restaurants. I have tried 2 versions one the normal one which I have posted here and the other one low fat whole wheat pizza.

Veggie Pizza Ingredients

Flour – Use all purpose flour or maida. You can even try replacing half of flour with wheat flour for a healthy pizza.
Yeast – I have used active dry yeast which works perfect. Bloom yeast separately to check first if it is active then proceed if you are not sure of the activeness.
Sugar – Sugar adds a balance in taste also helps yeast to bloom.
Milk – Milk and water is added to make the pizza dough.
Pizza sauce – You can store homemade pizza sauce or use store bought pizza sauce.
Topping – I have used onion, capsicum, corn and cheese.
Cheese – Use good quality grated mozzarella cheese.

How to make Veg Pizza Step by Step

To a mixing bowl – take flour(maida), add yeast and salt to it.

2. Mix well, Set aside. To another mixing bowl, take luke warm water.

3.Add milk, oil and sugar.

4.Mix well until sugar dissolves. Now add this mixture to flour.

5.Bring together. Knead for at least 5 minutes to a smooth dough. Cling wrap and set aside for 1 hour at least or until the dough doubles. When you check after an hour, the dough would have been raised well.

6.Brush the pizza baking tray with oil, sprinkle flour and keep it ready. Now punch the dough down incase for any air bubbles and then keep aside in a warm place. Roll the dough a little thick.

7.Transfer it to the baking tray and stretch it a little so that it forms a neat circle. Press it well so that its even. Press the edges with a back of a spoon to form a rim like effect. Preheat the oven at 200 DEG C for 10 minutes.

8.Now using a fork prick in the center for even cooking.

9.Brush well with oil/milk for even browning. Bake the base for 12 minutes or until the edges and center turn golden.

10.Spread the pizza sauce, I used the readymade pizza sauce. First add half of grated cheese.

11.Then arrange the toppings – I’ve used onion, sweet corn, capsicum. Then add remaining grated cheese, sprinkle oregano and chili flakes. Bake it again at 210 DEG C for 8-10 minutes or until the pizza is golden brown and cheese melts.

Cut the pizzas with pizza cutter/knife, make wedges and enjoy hot and yummy pizza! Serve hot! And its pizza time now , now lets dig in.

Expert Tips

You can bake the pizza along with topping and cheese for 20mins too but since I want a golden crust and goey cheese I do it this way.If you bake it along with topping, you will not get the golden crust as in restaurants,also if you bake more for getting the crust the toppings get overbaked so I use this method of baking.
The dough shouldn’t be sticky, if so add in a little more flour and knead again until it is less sticky.
I have used white flour here, you can replace with 50% wheat flour too.
After the base is baked, you need not preheat again. Just arrange the topping and bake it.
I used instant yeast,so added it directly to the flour. If you are using active dry yeast(measurement in ingredients list), then proof it by adding it to the milk water mixture, if it bubbles up well then yeast is active ,you can proceed.

Serving & Storage

Veggie Pizza is best when served hot! If you want to make pizza for party or get together prepare the topping and keep it ready then make the dough ready. Bake and serve hot.
