Vegan BBQ Jackfruit Pizza
This Vegan BBQ Jackfruit Pizza is mouthwateringly delicious! The jackfruit is the perfect substitute for chicken, with almost identical texture and takes on the flavor of the bbq sauce perfectly.
This recipe needs very little introduction! This is a vegan version of the classic bbq chicken pizza! I was inspired by the endless boxes of frozen pizzas my mom would by on the weekends when I was little! The jackfruit is the perfect substitute for chicken! It shreds the same and takes on the flavor of bbq sauce perfectly. I can’t wait for you guys to try this recipe! It is ESPECIALLY easy if you buy store bought pizza dough!

- If using refrigerated store-bought dough, allow the dough to come to room temperature on the counter for 10 minutes.
- Mean while open the can of jackfruit and rinse under fresh water. Grab each jackfruit pod and remove the tough core and seed. Shred the jackfruit with your hands or using a fork.
- Add the shredded jackfruit to a large pan over medium heat along with 1/2 cup bbq sauce. Mix and sauté for 10 minutes.
- Cut a piece of parchment to fit your cookie sheet or pizza stone onto your counter, sprinkle with flour and place the dough on it. Use your fingers to gently press and stretch the dough into a large circle…(you could also use a rolling pin).
- Spread the remaining barbecue sauce, then scatter the bbq jackfruit mixture, sprinkle the vegan mozzarella cheese shreds, then top with the thinly sliced red onion.
- Carefully transfer the parchment with pizza onto the pizza stone or cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until crust is slightly browned. Sprinkle the cilantro on top and a drizzle of vegan ranch before serving.
