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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Garlic Charm:
- As the flatbreads cook, generously spread the prepared garlic mixture on one side, allowing the warmth to enhance the aromatic essence.
- 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.
