Ingredients
Flatbread
- 2 ½ cups (300 g) flour all-purpose, spelt or gluten-free flour, *see notes
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup (120 ml) water
- ⅓ cup (60 g) soy quark or silken-firm tofu or another thick dairy-free yogurt (*see notes)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or other vegetable oil
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar or white vinegar or lemon juice
Garlic dip
- ¾ cup (160 g) soy yogurt or other yogurt
- 3-4 tbsp vegan mayonnaise
- 1-2 cloves of garlic pressed
- 2 tbsp parsley finely chopped
- 1 squeeze of lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste
For garnish (optional)
- parsley
- sesame seeds
Instructions
*Note: Check out the video + step-by-step instructions in the blog post above!
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a bowl.
- Form a well in the center. Add water, soy curd, olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Mix with a wooden spoon until it comes together. Then continue to knead with your hands until a fluffy dough forms (you can add a little more flour as needed, but the dough should not be too dry, otherwise the bread will be harder).
- Cover the dough and set aside for 10 minutes. Then divide into 8 portions and shape into small flatbreads (or make 4 large ones for vegan kebab/gyros wraps).
- Heat a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat and brush with a little oil.
- Place the flatbreads in the pan and cook for about 5 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, mix all the ingredients for the garlic dip.
- Sprinkle your flatbreads with parsley and sesame seeds and serve with the dip as an appetizer or side dish with other meals.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Tip: After cooking, spray your flatbreads with a little water or wrap them in a damp tea towel to keep them soft and pliable longer!
- Flour: Instead of all-purpose or spelt flour, you can use a gluten-free 1 to 1 flour blend.
- Soy quark: I usually use "Alpro Skyr" unsweetened which has a similar consistency to silken-firm tofu or thick yogurt. You can use or another thick dairy-free yogurt of your choice. If you have only regular yogurt with a more "watery" consistency, use ½ cup (120g) of it and only ⅓ cup (60ml) of water to get a similar result.
