Vegan Khachapuri Imeretian Style

40 minutes
Vegan khachapuri is a wonderful interpretation of the classic Georgian dish, adapted for a plant-based diet. Historically, khachapuri is considered the hallmark of Georgian cuisine, and this version gives the traditional recipe a new look while preserving its soul. The soft dough made with coconut oil and soy milk creates a tender base, while the filling of mashed potatoes with parsley adds rich flavor with light herbal notes. Baked to a golden crust, it becomes appetizing and aromatic, perfect for a cozy family dinner or friendly gathering. This khachapuri can be served on its own or with a light fresh salad to complement its rich texture. Delicious, warming, and completely plant-based — it will delight even those who do not follow a vegan diet!
