Vegan Spicy Sausage Pizza

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Main Courses Quick Meals
The fiery character of Pizza Diavola can be perfectly recreated with plant-based ingredients. Modern vegan 'meats' offer seasoning that rivals traditional sausage. The key here is managing the vegan cheese: since it melts differently than dairy, a little steam or oil helps achieve that perfect texture.

Allergen Information

⚠️ Wheat
⚠️ Soy (check sausage)
⚠️ Tree Nuts (check cheese)

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Slice sausage and chilis.

Tip: If sausage is dry, toss in a little oil before baking to prevent burning.
2 ✓

Roll out dough, place on oiled pan. Spread sauce and sprinkle with oregano.

Tip: Tomato acidity cuts through the richness of vegan cheese.
3 ✓

Top evenly with vegan cheese. Add sausage and chilis.

Tip: Placing cheese UNDER toppings helps the sauce steam it, aiding the melt.
4 ✓

Drizzle generously with olive oil, especially over cheese.

Tip: Oil helps heat transfer and gives a creamier mouthfeel to vegan cheese.
5 ✓

Bake 15-18 minutes until crust is browned and cheese is soft.

Tip: Check the bottom; if it's stiff and brown, it's ready.
6 ✓

Let stand for a few minutes before serving.

Tip: Vegan cheese can be runny when boiling hot; it firms up as it cools.

Recipe FAQ

Why didn't the vegan cheese melt?
Plant-based cheeses (starch/fat emulsions) need higher heat or moisture. Try spritzing with oil before baking.
Where to find vegan sausage?
Look for 'Italian' or 'Hot' plant-based sausages in the produce or freezer aisle.
