Cheesy Spinach Flatbread - Vegan recipe hero image

I’ve always loved how a simple flatbread can warm up a gathering, especially when it’s filled with cheesy goodness and vibrant spinach.

This recipe is close to my heart because it reminds me of the times I cooked with my grandmother, who taught me that good food is all about love and intention.

Plus, it’s so easy to whip up for a quick lunch or to impress guests at dinner!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

Using firm tofu gives a nice texture to the filling, but you can also swap in some vegan coconut cream vegan cheese for an extra creamy experience. Nutritional yeast is a game-changer for that cheesy flavor without any coconut coconut cream!

Tips & Notes

  • I love making a double batch and freezing the extras for a quick snack later on.
  • If you want to spice things up, add some chopped jalapeños to the filling!

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I’ll add sun-dried tomatoes for a burst of flavor.
  • You can swap out the spinach for kale or even arugula if you’re feeling adventurous!

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or toaster oven for that crispy texture!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this gluten-free?

Absolutely! Just use a gluten-free flour blend instead of whole wheat flour, but keep an eye on the water amount as it might vary.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    In a large mixing bowl, add the whole wheat flour, olive oil, and salt. Once the yeast is frothy, pour it into the flour mixture.

  3. 3

    Mix until a dough forms, then knead for about 5 minutes on a floured surface until smooth. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for about 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled tofu, nutritional yeast, spinach, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.

  5. 5

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into four equal pieces. Roll each piece out into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.

  6. 6

    Spoon the cheesy spinach filling onto one half of each flatbread circle, folding the other half over to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges to seal.

  7. 7

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a bit of cooking oil. Cook each flatbread for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

  8. 8

    Serve warm with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or simply enjoy them as they are!
