Easy Homemade Pizza Sauce

Our family's favorite homemade pizza sauce! Easy to assemble and also super flavorful with garlic, herbs, and a little tang. (Vegan, GF, oil-free)

This is our favorite homemade pizza sauce, and it's been our go-to family recipe for years. It's deliciously dense and flavor-packed with garlic, herbs, and a hint of delicious tanginess.

I prefer my sauce on the thicker side, so add a little water or broth to thin to your own desired thickness.

Plus I love how the flavors beautifully intensify as it sits, so it's also great made ahead of time - just cover and store in the fridge until you're ready to use. (I like to use a small jar with a tight lid for refrigeration.)

Hope you enjoy as much as we do and happy pizza partying! (I love it on this 30 minute Vegan French Bread Pizza for a quick and easy weeknight meal.)

I like my sauce on the thicker side (this one is very dense), so simply add more water to thin if desired!
