Ingredients

1 lb. (about 450g) pizza dough, store-bought or homemade
cornmeal or flour (for dusting)
vegan pesto sauce (store-bought or homemade)
vegan pizza sauce (store-bought or homemade)
vegan cheese (shredded or sliced)
2 medium-sized potatoes, thinly sliced (use a mandoline slicer if available)
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
In a skillet, heat 1 - 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they become soft. (about 2 -3 minutes). Then set aside.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. If you're using a pizza stone, transfer the rolled-out dough to a piece of parchment paper sprinkled with cornmeal or flour.
Spread a thin layer of store-bought pizza sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Spoon dollops of store-bought vegan pesto sauce over the pizza sauce.
Arrange the thinly sliced potatoes evenly on top of the pesto and pizza sauce. Add the sliced onions on top of the potatoes.
Sprinkle a generous amount of vegan cheese on top of the potatoes and caramelized onions. Use as much or as little as you prefer.
If using a pizza stone, carefully slide the parchment paper with the assembled pizza onto the hot stone. Otherwise, place the pizza on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden, the vegan cheese is melted and bubbly, and the toppings are cooked to your liking.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly. Slice and serve your delicious and convenient Vegan Pesto Potato Pizza.
