Vegan Pizza - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Dough:
    4 cups bread flour
    1 1/3 cups warm water
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    1 tablespoon active dry yeast
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon oil, for greasing pan
    1 teaspoon cornmeal, or as needed
    1 (14 ounce) can vegan pizza sauce
    1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
    1 green bell pepper, sliced
    1 onion, sliced
    20 kalamata olives, sliced
    oregano, or to taste
    crushed red pepper to taste (optional)
    1 tablespoon olive oil, or as desired
Preparation
    Mix bread flour, water, 3 tablespoons olive oil, yeast, and salt together in a large bowl; when the dough pulls together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
    Place dough in a large, lightly-oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place for 2 hours.
    Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 14-inch pizza pans with 1 teaspoon oil; lightly dust each pan with cornmeal.
    Divide dough in half and roll out into 2 thin rounds. Transfer each round to a prepared pizza pan.
    Spread pizza sauce over dough; top with mushrooms, peppers, onions, olives, and oregano. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
    Bake pizzas in the preheated oven until crust is golden and sauce is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Garnish with crushed red pepper.
