When the summer garden is overflowing it's time to put those veggies front and center. I cover this vegan summer pizza in thinly sliced squash, going big. I find when you lay the squash or zucchini on heavy like this (but thinly sliced on a mandoline!) not only does it make for a beautiful pie but the texture of the bite is something almost cheese like but 100% fresh summer veg vibes in flavor. For this bake in the Ooni Koda 16 I’m using the recipe in my homemade sourdough pizza dough recipe and how to. If you enjoyed please subscribe to the Santa Barbara Baker YouTube Channel and share with your pizza friends and fam. Thank you and much love to all that have! One Love!
Combine in a small bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Pizza
Preheat your Ooni Koda 16 for at least 30 minutes, I like to heat the center of the oven deck to around 850f before loading this style of pizza.
Salt sliced squash generously and let drain in a colander for about 30 minutes.
Begin building the pizza starting with the garlic and shallots. Top with pistachio and lemon zest mixture. From the crust in layer sliced, salted, and drained squash. Add cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Bake in your Ooni pizza oven till fully baked and nicely colored. Watch the video for the real time bake!
Let the crust set on a wire rack for a least 20 seconds. Top with basil and chives. Drizzle with Pistachio Oil. Season with salt and pepper. Slice and serve immediately.
