Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup vegan cheese such as cashew cheese, coconut cheese, or soy cheese
  • 2-3 fresh jalapenos spicy to taste
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour if you prefer gluten-free bread
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar to activate the yeast
  • 1 ¼ cups warm water
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil optional: olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika optional to enhance flavor
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar to improve fermentation

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt well.
  • Add the Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the warm water and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a rough dough forms.
  • Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour gradually.
  • Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in an oiled bowl. Cover it with a damp towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours or until it doubles in size.
  • Prepare the Cheese and Jalapenos: While the dough is rising, chop the vegan cheese into small pieces and slice the jalapenos thinly.
  • Incorporate the Ingredients into the Dough: Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down, then add the vegan cheese and jalapenos to the dough. Knead gently until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Shape the Dough: On a floured surface, shape the dough into a round or rectangular loaf, depending on your preference. Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Preheat the Oven for Baking: Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
  • Bake the Dough: Bake the dough in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  • Serve: Allow the bread to cool slightly before slicing. You can serve it with dips, soups, or salads.
