These easy vegan flatbread pizzas are loaded with classic supreme toppings like mushrooms, bell pepper, onion, and pepperoni — all in plant-based form. To really bring home those pizzeria vibes, serve with a shaker of vegan parmesan for sprinkling on finished pies.

Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Heat 1 teaspoon avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pepperoni and cook until browned. (About 5 minutes on the first side, 2 minutes on the other. If you're using thinner store-bought slices, they may brown more quickly, so keep an eye on them.) Transfer to a plate.
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon avocado oil, mushrooms, and a pinch of salt to the hot skillet. Cook until browned and softened, flipping once (about 3 minutes total since the pan is already hot).
Arrange flatbreads on one or two baking sheets, whichever fits best. Spread about ¼ cup marinara on each flatbread.
Spread about ¼ cup shredded vegan mozzarella evenly over each flatbread.
Evenly top each pizza with pepperoni, mushrooms, bell pepper, yellow onion, and olives.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. (Crusts on the lower rack will crisp faster. Swap oven racks halfway through for more even browning, if desired.)
When the crusts are browned and the cheese has melted, remove from the oven. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired. Then serve.

Reheating and storageStore leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Reheat leftovers in the air fryer (my preference), oven, or toaster oven.
