Description
This Roasted Veggie Pizza is my go-to and I love that it’s completely vegetarian and requires just a few simple ingredients. A homemade harissa yogurt sauce is layered with roasted veggies, feta cheese, then drizzled with honey for the perfect touch of sweetness.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 eggplant, sliced thin
- 1 small yellow onion, sliced thin
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tsp salt + 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup harissa
- 1 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
- 1 lb store-bought pizza dough, let sit at room temperature for 1 hour
- 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbles
- 1 large tomato, sliced thin
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Prep a pizza stone or baking sheet: Place a pizza stone on the lowest rack of your oven and set the temperature to 450°F (if you don’t have a pizza stone, you can alternately brush olive oil on a large baking sheet and do not need to preheat the sheet).
- Roast the eggplant and onion: Combine the sliced eggplant and onion in a bowl with olive oil, salt and pepper. Arrange the eggplant and onion slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, trying not to overlap too much. Roast in the oven for 10 minutes, then use a spatula to mix the eggplant and onion and roast for another 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside. The eggplant and onion should be slightly browned but you will finish cooking them on the pizza later.
- Make the pizza sauce: While the eggplant and onion are roasting, prepare the sauce by combing the harissa and Greek yogurt in a bowl. Set aside.
- Prep the dough: Stretch and shape the pizza dough into a circle on parchment paper, then carefully transfer dough on parchment paper to the heated stone. Carefully pull the dough to the edges of the stone (if using a baking sheet, simply place the dough on the baking sheet and pull to stretch to the edges). Bake the dough in the oven for 5 minutes.
- Add the toppings: Use a spoon to spread the harissa sauce over the pre-baked dough, then distribute the tomato and roasted eggplant and onion. Top with feta crumbles then bake in the oven for 15 minutes, or until the crust is a golden brown.
- Finish the pizza: Slice the pizza into 8 slices, then drizzle with honey. Sprinkle crushed pepper flakes and fresh cilantro on top if desired. Enjoy!
