Hummus Pizza

Ingredients

For dough

1 tablespoon dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup warm water (115F)
2½ cups flour
1 teaspoon salt

For toppings

1 tomato, sliced
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
1 cup yellow squash, sliced
1 cup red onion, diced
1 cup spinach, stems trimmed
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup Classic Hummus
½ cup green onion, sliced
¼ cup mozzarella, grated
¼ cup feta, crumbled

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450F
Combine water, sugar, and yeast and allow to proof; about 10 minutes
Add flour and salt, stirring to combine
Let dough rest for 10 minutes
Flatten dough and bake just until bubbles form
Sauteé spinach with garlic until wilted
After dough has rested, cover with hummus, leaving a ½ inch border for crust
Add toppings as desired, topping with cheese
Bake for 15 - 20 minutes

This is a recipe to make a quick, healthy, pizza, replacing tomato sauce with hummus and reducing the amount of cheese compared to a traditional pizza. First, check out our Classic Hummus recipe and make at least a cup. Next, slice the vegetables and sauteé the spinach with a bit of garlic.

Next, make the dough. This is by no means a perfect pizza dough, but it’s fast and really tasty! We added some oregano, thyme, garlic powder, and pepper to the dough, but you can experiment with others.
