Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
salt and pepper, to taste

For the toppings

1 ½ cups vegan cheese, shredded
½ cup bell pepper, thinly sliced
½ cup cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
¼ cup black olives, sliced (optional)

For serving

fresh basil leaves, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler element and preheat the broiler to high. Line a large baking sheet with foil.
2
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 1 minute — watch closely so it doesn't burn. Add the crushed tomatoes, oregano, dried basil, sugar, and red pepper flakes, if using. Stir to combine, then simmer over medium-low heat until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors meld, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat.
