Ingredients
Scale
Dough Ingredients
- 1 cup non-dairy yogurt
- 2 cups flour (plus more for dusting)
- 1 tsp instant yeast
- ½ tsp salt
Filling Ingredients
- ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- ¼ cup olives, pitted and chopped (optional)
- 1 cup fresh baby spinach, chopped
- ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, chopped (optional)
- 1 cup cream cheese
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, salt, and non-dairy yogurt. Knead the mixture thoroughly for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl tightly and place it in the refrigerator to ferment and rise overnight, allowing the flavors to develop.
- Make the filling: In a separate bowl, mix together the cream cheese, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, fresh spinach, Italian seasoning, nutritional yeast, and chopped basil leaves (if using). Add the chopped olives if you choose to include them. Stir until all ingredients are evenly incorporated into a flavorful filling.
- Divide and fill the dough: Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it into four equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a flat circle about 6–8 inches in diameter. Place a generous amount of the cream cheese filling in the center of each circle, then carefully fold the dough over and seal the edges well to encase the filling completely.
- Cook the flatbreads: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place each stuffed flatbread in the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until both sides are golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning while ensuring the filling is warmed and the dough is fully cooked.
- Serve: Serve the warm stuffed flatbreads immediately, accompanied by hummus or a fresh side salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add garlic powder or chili flakes to the filling mixture.
- If you prefer, substitute cream cheese with a vegan cream cheese to keep the recipe fully plant-based.
- Make sure the dough is properly sealed around the filling to prevent leakage during cooking.
- Dust your rolling surface and rolling pin with flour to avoid sticking.
- Leftover flatbreads can be reheated in a skillet or oven for best texture.
