For the Crust:
1 cup of warm water
2.5 tbsp of instant yeast (one one of those individual packets that come in threes)
1 tbsp of sugar
1 tsp of salt
1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
3 cups of flour
Set the oven to 175F. Mix the yeast, sugar and warm water together and let it sit for 10 minutes until it foams/bubbles.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the yeast water in a large bowl and mix until into comes together. Knead in a mixer (I used a kitchen aid mixer) for 10 minutes. Oil the bottom/walls of the bowl with the dough and cover with plastic wrap and a towel.
Turn the oven off and place the bowl inside to rise for 1-2 hours. Punch the dough down in the bowl before use.
She made 3 thin crust pizzas with this dough recipe and baked them at 450F for ~15 minutes or until the crust started to brown and crisp.
Cashew Sauce:
1/2 cup of cashews
3 oz hot water
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
Pepper to taste
Blend the cashews until fine. Add the hot water and mix. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.
Enjoy!
