Pizza Pinwheels

Step 1

In a skillet, saute garlic and onions until translucent.

Step 2

Add sliced mushrooms and cook until mushrooms are browned.

Step 3

Use a small amount of vegetable broth or water if the mushrooms begin to stick.

Step 4

Saute until any liquid dissipates; remove from heat and allow to cool.

Step 5

In the meantime, roll out the dough.

Step 6

If using frozen dough, place it in the refrigerator overnight to thaw.

Step 7

To quickly thaw the dough, leave it out on the counter for about an hour until thawed.

Step 8

Lay a piece of parchment paper the size of a large baking sheet pan on a flat surface.

Step 9

Roll the dough on the parchment paper. You may need a small amount of flour for the rolling pin or if you experience any sticking.

Step 10

Roll out the dough thin, less than 1/8 inch evenly across.

Step 11

Although the dough does not need to be perfectly rectangular, make it equal on both ends and sides, even if misshaped.

Step 12

Spoon the pizza sauce evenly over the dough base, making sure a thin layer covers the entire area.

Step 13

Then, spread the mushroom, garlic, onions mixture (now cool) evenly across the sauce layer.

Step 14

Next, add sun-dried tomatoes, again sprinkling evenly across the surface.

Step 15

Add whole basil leaves over the surface and sprinkle generously with vegan parmesan cheese.

Step 16

Now, tightly roll the dough evenly toward you, keeping the ingredients inside the dough.

Step 17

Using the parchment paper underneath, roll the cylinder, covering the dough.

Step 18

Fold at both ends to avoid any moisture getting into the tube.

Step 19

Place the wrapped pizza pinwheel dough in the refrigerator until it is firm again.

Step 20

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Step 21

Unroll the dough's cylinder, use a sharp knife, and cut the now firm dough into one-inch slices.

Step 22

With the same parchment paper, line a baking sheet, and place each pizza pinwheel piece an inch apart.

Step 23

Bake for 35 minutes

Step 24

Serve with extra pizza sauce or vegan ranch for dipping.
