Categories     Dinner

Time 1h42m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Water- 4 cups.
Salt- 1 teaspoon.
Polenta - 1 cup
Olive Oil - 1 tablespoon.
Seasonings as desired. This can include Italian Seasonings
Pizza Sauce- 1/2 to 1 cup. Can omit if desired.
Vegetables (chopped or cut up, 2 cups total. This can include mushrooms, red peppers, garlic, zucchini, and/or onions.)
Cheese or tofu - 1/2 to 1 cup or as desired.
Pizza Seasonings as desired.

Steps:

  • Start by making the polenta. In a skillet or saucepan on medium to high heat, bring the water and salt to a boil. Then add the polenta, cook for a minute and then turn the heat down to low. Important: use a whisk to constantly mix the cooking ingredients to avoid sticking.
  • Once the polenta has somewhat thickened you can cover it and allow it to continue to cook for another 25-30 minutes or until the polenta has become thick and creamy, continuing to whisk as needed.
  • While the polenta cooks you can prepare the baking sheet or pizza pan. Prep this sheet or pan with some Parchment Paper that is sprinkled with the additional polenta (about 1 tablespoon should be needed for this).
  • Remove the polenta from the stove and stir in any additional seasonings. Then you can transfer the polenta to the prepared baking sheet or pizza pan. The crust should be 1/3-1/2" thick.
  • Cover the crust with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour or up to a day. The crust should be firm when removed from the refrigerator.
  • When you are ready to make your pizza, remove the pizza crust from the refrigerator. Also, remove the plastic wrap. Preheat your oven to 450. Sprinkle the olive oil over the crust and bake it for 10-12 minutes or until it begins to become crisp and brown around the edges.
  • Remove the crust from the oven and top with your desired toppings.
  • Return the topped pizza to the oven and bake until done, about 12-15 minutes.
