In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, and mix until a sticky dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. Mix the dairy-free mozzarella, dairy-free feta, apple cider vinegar, and nutritional yeast in a bowl. Chop the fresh parsley and dill finely, and add them to the cheese mixture. Stir in the red chili flakes and mix well.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and divide it into two equal parts.
Roll out each dough piece into an oval shape, about 1 cm thick, on a floured surface.
Place half of the cheese mixture in the center of each oval and spread it out, leaving about 2 cm from the edges.
Fold the opposite sides of the dough over the filling to create a boat shape, pinching the edges to seal.
Transfer the dough boats onto the prepared baking sheet.
Fill each boat with the remaining cheese mixture and use the back of a spoon to create a small well in the center for the egg substitute.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley or dill if desired.
