Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1.25 cups Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Vegan cream cheese
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Stir together until well mixed.

Step 2

Add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough forms.

Step 3

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) once the dough is nearly finished rising.

Step 6

Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten the dough slightly to form a thick oval or rectangle.

Step 7

Spread the vegan cream cheese evenly over the surface of the dough.

Step 8

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and spread them over the cream cheese layer.

Step 9

Sprinkle chopped fresh basil, ground black pepper, and garlic powder over the top of the tomatoes.

Step 10

Bake the prepared bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cream cheese is slightly bubbly.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 12

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your Vegan Savory Bread with Cream Cheese and Cherry Tomatoes.
