Ingredients

• Pizza dough - 250 grams
• Raw cashews - 100 grams (soaked in water for 4 hours)
• Nutritional yeast - 3 tablespoons
• Garlic - 2 cloves
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).
2. In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding a little water if necessary to achieve a sauce-like consistency.
3. On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to about 25 cm (10 inches) in diameter.
4. Place the rolled dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Spread the cashew sauce evenly over the pizza base, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Distribute the fresh spinach, sliced mushrooms, and halved cherry tomatoes evenly over the sauce.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.
8. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil, slice, and serve hot.
