This buffalo chickpea pizza was waiting to be edited and posted. This Pizza is based on the Buffalo chikun Pizza from Pizza Pi in Seattle. The spicy tangy Buffalo sauce, a generous amount of white garlic sauce and celery ranch sauce and oh my, It is so good!
If you have the pizza dough ready, then this Pizza is a breeze to put together too. Mix up the buffalo sauce and chickpeas, make the blender sauces. Layer them all up, Bake and serve. Vegan, palm oil free and soy free! Easily gluten-free with my gf crusts. btw buffalo sauce has nothing to do with the animal Buffalo but everything to do with the location it was created at, Buffalo, NY.

This Vanity Fair Article on Sam Simpson. Diagnosed with terminal cancer two years ago, and given only months to live, Sam Simon is still alive and still racing to spend the fortune he made as co-creator of The Simpsons on causes he loves, whether he is rescuing grizzly bears (and chinchillas and elephants) or funding vegan food banks.
It only needed Ethan Brown to show up in the latest issue of Fast Company, to get hubbs very intrigued about trying out all the Beyond Meat Products.

Ingredients
Ingredients

- or any of my gluten free crusts
For the Buffalo Sauce Chickpeas
- 3 Tbsp hot sauce
- 1.5 Tbsp Sriracha hot sauce
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 15 oz can chickpeas , or 1.5 cups cooked chickpeas
White Sauce Base
- 1/2 cup ground cashew
- 3/4 cup almond milk
- 2 tbsp flour , or 1 Tbsp arrowroot starch
- 2/3 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- a very generous dash of black pepper
For the garlic sauce
- 2/3 of the white sauce from above
- 4 cloves of roasted garlic , or 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp italian herb blend
- 1 Tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Celery ranch sauce
- 1/3 of the white sauce from above
- 1/2 tsp ranch seasoning
- 1/2 tsp celery seeds
- 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Make the pizza dough according to recipe. Use double the pizza dough recipe to make 2 pizzas.
- Make the Buffalo chickpeas: Mix everything under buffalo chickpeas. Mash a few chickpeas and let sit and marinate while you prep the sauce.
- Make the White sauce: Blend all the ingredients under white sauce base until well combined into a smooth sauce.
- Make the White Garlic sauce: Take about a 2/3 part of the white sauce from above and add garlic sauce ingredients. Mix well. Taste and adjust and mix or blend.
- Make the Celery Ranch: Add the ranch seasoning, celery and vinegar and mix and keep ready.
- Shape the pizza dough to a 10 inch rounds with thick edges so the sauce does not flow off the pizza during baking. Brush olive oil on it. Drizzle enough garlic sauce on the dough to coat. Add spinach or greens or other veggies of choice.
- Layer buffalo chickpeas on the greens. Drizzle some buffalo sauce from the marinade.
- Drizzle a generous amount of celery ranch. Add vegan mozzarella cheese shreds (optional). Try any of my cheeses
- Bake at pre-heated 425 degrees F / 220ºc for 14 minutes. Broil for a minute to crisp.
- Drizzle any leftover garlic sauce or celery ranch before serving.

Hi Richa, this is a go-to for my husband andI at least twice month. It has replaced our Friday night pizza order from a local restaurant (since we are now strict vegans).
Any thoughts or suggestions on a great side or salad to pair with it?
Any crunchy lettuce salad will work like vegan caesar or some ranch based so you can use up the celery ranch or a roasted veggie salad like my cajun roasted bowl with garlic sauce.
Perfect! Thank you!!!
This was amazing. The flavor was great. I had a problem with my crust – I used your garlic pizza crust and it was a little doughy. Any suggestions on what I did wrong?
hmm, if the dough was too sticky, add more flour. Also roll it out thinner as it rises quite a bit and fatter dough will take longer to bake.
This looks so good!! Can’t wait ti try it. Thanks for that awesome recipe.
I just made this for my boyfriend and I for dinner and it was amazing!!!! I think it might just be my new favorite recipe.
yay!
I just made this and I may say it is a little spicy. I like it like that though, hahah
you can use less of the hot sauce. When you transfer chickpeas to the crust, dont drizzle all of the sauce over the chickpeas. You can add more later to taste or heat preference.
well do…next time though 🙂
in the oven now! 🙂
Can some or all of the oils be left out? I try to eat WFPB and try to stay away from as much oil as I can. I am really dying to try this!
yes. you can omit the oils from the buffalo sauce and the dressing. for oil free pizza dough see https://fettabbau-trim.today/recipe-pages/basic-vegan-pizza-dough-oil-free%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E
Hi. You used to have a BBQ apple and mushroom bacon pizza recipe. I made it several times and the whole family lives it. However I didn’t print it because I would just type it in Google and make it again. It all of the sudden disappeared from your site and I haven’t seen it since. I was wondering why it is no longer available and if it’s possible to get it from you one last ti.e so I can print it and enjoy it forever?? Thanks so much for all your recipes, yours are definitely a favourite!!
thats probably someone elses recipe 🙂
I think we’ve made this about 10 times over, and it’s YUM.
No doubt your new book will have plenty of tasty recipes also. I’ve pre-ordered it already, but will you be able to share a list of included recipes pre-launch? I can hardly wait! 🙂
Awesome! The TOC might be available on Amazon look inside. I’ll ask the publisher if I can share it pre-launch.
Made this tonight but used Daiya ranch dressing because I didn’t have the ranch sauce ingredients.
Yummy!
Next time I will be sure to make the ranch and buy some greens!
Will def make again! Thanks!
