Ingredients

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (I used Pepperidge Farm's puff pastry sheets, which are vegan)
  • tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (divided)
  • 2 cloves garlic (crushed and then thinly sliced)
  • 2 shallots (thinly sliced in half-moons)
  • 1 leek (halved lengthwise. Clean all grit hiding within the leaves and slice thinly)
  • 6 scallions (spring onions, chopped into 1-inch lengths)
  • 1 tablespoon thyme (chopped roughly)
  • Salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup vegan parmesan cheese

Optional toppings

  • capers
  • cherry tomatoes (halved or quartered)
  • kalamata olives or black olives (sliced)

Instructions

  • Heat ½ tablespoon oil in a skillet. Add the onions along with garlic, salt, ground black pepper. Saute for a minute.
    Sliced onions and garlic in skillet with wooden ladle.
  • Add the leeks and scallions and continue to saute, stirring frequently, until the onion starts to caramelize and the veggies are soft, about 5-8 minutes. Stir in thyme.
    Thyme added to skillet with onions, leeks and garlic.
  • Preheat the oven to 415 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Roll out the puff pastry a little to about 10 by 14 inches. Place on a baking sheet, then use the tines of a fork to make holes all over, leaving a 1-inch border all around the edges.

  • Spread the vegan parm and then the veggies over the crust, leaving the 1-inch border clear.

  • Bake 15 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden and crispy. Remove the pizza from the oven and scatter on one or more of the optional toppings.
  • Slice and serve.
