Best & Easy Homemade Veg Pizza Recipe With Yeast

Best & Easy Homemade Veg Pizza Recipe With Yeast: Pizza is a flatbread that is prepared with all-purpose flour and fermented with yeast. it is typically topped with mozzarella cheese, pizza tomato sauce, and other vegetarian pizza toppings. pizza can be consumed as a snack, but not limited to lunch and dinner too.

Traditionally it is an Italian cuisine recipe but very well popular all over the world. there are several variations and varieties of pizza recipes. however, this recipe is a simple veg pizza recipe with yeast and baked in an oven. the toppings can be changed as per the preference and even meat can be added for meat-eaters.

I have already shared the pizza recipe on tawa for all readers who do not have an oven at home. also, the pizza dough was prepared with baking soda and powder as compared to this recipe which I have prepared with yeast.  also, I have added mushroom in this recipe as compared to the previous one. mushroom haters can easily skip it if you do not wish too. also, slices of pineapple, basil leaves, and even broccoli and roasted garlic can also be added.

this recipe was long due from me as one of my readers had requested it long back. well, to be honest, this is my third attempt of veg pizza recipe with yeast as previously I was not satisfied with the result. I prefer to have thin crust pizza, and in my previous 2 attempts, I was not able to achieve it. hence I would say this is a tried and tested recipe and less likely to go wrong. also, the other most important take away from my previous attempt was to with cheese toppings. because I have topped my pizza with 5 different vegetables, I would recommend adding the cheese after vegetable topping. this would ensure the vegetables to be cooked properly. if you are topping with just 1-2 vegetables, cheese can be added well ahead in advance.
