Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 packet Instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Raw cashews
• 4 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Water
• 1 cup Spinach
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh dill

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the dough. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Stir to mix the dry ingredients.

Step 2

Add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, stirring until a rough dough forms.

Step 3

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise for approximately 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Step 5

Meanwhile, prepare the vegan cheese filling. Soak raw cashews in hot water for about 10 minutes, then drain.

Step 6

Combine soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and water in a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding more water a tablespoon at a time if necessary to reach a thick, spreadable consistency.

Step 7

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 8

After the dough has risen, punch it down to release air and divide it into two equal portions.

Step 9

On a floured surface, roll each portion into an oval shape about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 10

Transfer the rolled dough onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 11

Spread the prepared vegan cheese filling over the center of each dough oval, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Step 12

Top the cheese with fresh spinach and sprinkle with chopped dill.

Step 13

Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pinching the ends together to form boats.

Step 14

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and firm.

Step 15

Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, slice, and enjoy your vegan Khachapuri.
