These mushroom pepperonis have elevated our pizza nights. So tasty and easy to prepare. Just slice, season, and bake! We enjoy them on our semi-homemade pizzas using already prepared pizza dough from stores. We also pick up pizza sauce and vegan cheese to make this as simple, easy, and quick.
Why you will love this vegan pepperoni alternative
Simple ingredients: It really just takes a few pantry staples to make this vegan mushroom pepperoni.
Make ahead: You can have these made in advance and just top your pizza before putting it in the oven.
Taste: A good mix of seasonings is all you need to replicate flavors. Traditional Pepperoni uses paprika, garlic, and herbs, and we will be using the same.
What mushrooms to use for vegan pepperoni
Any mushrooms would probably taste delicious with this marinade. We use king oyster mushrooms for its shape and density. Sliced white button mushrooms would be fine, just keep in mind they will shrink a lot.
We hope you enjoy this recipe. Remember, every step you take towards a plant-based lifestyle is something to be proud of. Whether you’re vegan, trying to eat more plant-based meals, or just here for a delicious recipe – thank you for being part of the journey with us!
