Ingredients:

For the Flatbread Dough:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For the Garlic Spread:

  • 1/2 cup vegan butter, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Dough Mastery:
    • In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and instant yeast. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center, pour in the yeast mixture, and add olive oil. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise for 1-2 hours.
  2. Garlic Infusion:
    • Meanwhile, prepare the garlic spread. In a small bowl, mix softened vegan butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  3. Divine Division:
    • Once the dough has risen, divide it into equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten into a round disc, creating the flatbreads.
  4. Sizzling Sensation:
    • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place each flatbread on the hot surface and cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Garlic Charm:
    • As the flatbreads cook, generously spread the prepared garlic mixture on one side, allowing the warmth to enhance the aromatic essence.
  6. Serve with Style:
    • Once the flatbreads are cooked to perfection, serve them warm. Optionally, sprinkle additional chopped parsley for a fresh burst of color and flavor.
