Vegan Buffalo Chicken & Ranch Pizza

April 26, 2023

This is the best vegan pizza I have ever made hands down! The freshly made bread is the best thing in the World... once you try it you just won't be able to go back to store bought pizza crust. Topped with vegan ranch dressing and buffalo sauce and our very own Harmless Mozzarella & Harmless Cheddar. Our Harmless Chicken is marinated in the buffalo sauce

Pizza Dough Recipe:

• 1 ⅓ cup warm water
• 2 ¼ tsp yeast
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 2 Tbsp oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 ½ cups flour

Pizza Dough Intructions:

1. Mix warm water, yeast, and granulated sugar in a stand mixer bowl or large mixing bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and flour. Beat on low speed for 2 minutes.
2. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes until it feels soft. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover and let it rise for 60-90 minutes until double in size.
3. Preheat oven to 475°F and prepare a baking sheet or pizza pan. Divide dough in half, shape into a 12-inch circle, and create a lip around the edges. Drizzle some oil over the pizza (to reduce going soggy).
4. Rest for a few minutes, add your toppings, and bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown.

Buffalo Sauce:

• ⅔ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)
• ½ cup cold unsalted butter
• 1 ½ tablespoons white vinegar
• ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
• salt to taste

Buffalo Sauce Instructions:

1. Heat a frying pan over medium heat, once at temperature add all buffalo sauce ingredients together, just enough to combine the vegan butter with the rest of the ingredients.
