Ingredients

Bagel Base

  • 1 sesame bagel (or plain)

Toppings

  • 2 tbsp tomato puree
  • pinch of dried oregano (or dried basil)
  • 3 tbsp vegan mozzarella (grated, or vegan cheddar)
  • pinch chilli flakes (optional)
  • 1 tomato (sliced)
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Slice the Bagel: Carefully slice your sesame bagel in half horizontally to create two flat surfaces for the toppings.
  2. Toast the Bagel: Toast or broil the bagel halves until they are golden and slightly crisp, providing a sturdy base for the toppings.
  3. Apply Tomato Puree: Spread 2 tablespoons of tomato puree evenly over each toasted bagel half, ensuring good coverage.
  4. Season with Herbs: Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano or dried basil evenly over the tomato puree for added flavor.
  5. Add Cheese and Chilli: Top each bagel half with 3 tablespoons grated vegan mozzarella or vegan cheddar, and sprinkle with chilli flakes if desired for a spicy kick.
  6. Layer Fresh Tomato: Arrange slices of fresh tomato evenly over the cheese layer to add freshness and moisture.
  7. Season: Lightly season the topped bagels with salt and pepper to enhance all the flavors.
  8. Grill the Pizza: Place the assembled bagel halves under a grill or broiler until the vegan cheese has melted, typically 2-3 minutes.
  9. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the vegan bagel pizzas hot for the best melty texture or cold as a refreshing snack.

Notes

  • Using a sesame bagel gives a nice nutty flavor and texture, but plain bagels work well too.
  • If you don’t have a grill, toasting in the oven or using a toaster oven on broil will work effectively.
  • Feel free to add other toppings like vegan pepperoni, olives, or spinach to customize your pizza.
  • Adjust chilli flakes according to your spice preference or omit for a milder taste.
  • This recipe makes 2 servings, perfect for sharing or a hearty snack.
