The Dough
For the pizza base I used my trusty little pizza dough recipe, it has been my go-to for so many years now. It’s the quickest recipe you’ll ever find, and it’s totally customizable. You can use plain white, whole-wheat, spelt, or your favorite gluten-free flour, and it always works. And you can also add a little garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
Here I used a mix of white and rye flour with some garlic flavor for the dough. However any store-bought pizza dough will work as well.
You can roll the dough however you like. Make an extra large thin crust pizza, or a smaller one with thicker crust, if you prefer.
TOPPINGS
To top the pizza I make my creamy base with cannellini beans, vegan cheese, nutritional yeast, and vegan cream cheese. I love to use my Basic Cashew Cheese for this, but my Tofu Cream Cheese, my 2-Ingredient Cream Cheese, or a good store-bought version are just as good too. My favorites are from Oatly and Bedda.
To top it all up I use canned artichoke hearts (frozen are perfect too), and quickly sautéed baby spinach. You can chop them all up, or keep in larger pieces. Mix them all with the creamy base, or just scatter them on top.
A sprinkle of red pepper flakes, chili slices, or fresh basil, plus a lots of freshly cracked pepper to finish it all off, and trust me, you’ll be in love with this.

- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1/3 cup of warm water
SAUCE
- 1/2 can of white beans, drained
- 1/2 cup of vegan cream cheese
- 1/4 cup of shredded vegan cheese (optional)

- chili flakes (optional)
- chili slices (optional)
- fresh basil (optional)
Instructions
- Add flour, garlic powder, instant yeast, and salt to a bowl, and mix together with a fork or spoon. Add oil and warm water, then using your hands mix together everything.
- Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a smooth, firm ball. Cover with a kitchen cloth and let rise for about 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425 F/220 C.
- Add white beans, vegan cream cheese, shredded vegan cheese, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a blender, and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Heat up a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion, and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, and adding 1-2 tablespoons of water at a time to prevent sticking. Add spinach, and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until wilted.
- Once dough has doubled in size, pat or roll into a large round pizza. Spread creamy sauce on top, and scatter spinach and artichokes on top. Alternatively mix together spinach and artichokes with creamy sauce, and top pizza with this.
