Instructions
Step 1
Make the Sumac Tahini Spread. Combine all the ingredients and whisk until smooth and creamy. This works best with an immersion blender or small food processor. Taste test and adjust as needed. The sauce should be on the thicker side (you’ll want it to be spreadable) but if it seems way too thick add a touch more water.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 400F. Toss the cauliflower and onions with the olive oil, salt and za’atar. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and roast in the oven until golden brown and tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for a few minutes.
Step 3
Increase the oven temperature to 475F. Roll our your pizza dough. Spread out an even layer of the sumac tahini sauce (if you end up with a bit leftover that’s fine! It’s great for dipping veggies!) Layer on the roasted veggies followed by the Mozzarella. Sprinkle with additional za’atar and bake until the crust is golden brown and crisp, about 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the parsley while the pizza is still warm. Slice and serve.
