Ingredients

...for the dough...

...for the filling...

Instructions

  • Finely slice the courgettes and sauté in a hot pan with olive oil and garlic (whole or grated, depending on your taste).
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, and cook until the courgettes are soft and caramelized. Add some fresh mint leaves if you like.
  • Lower the heat, then sprinkle the flour over the courgettes, mix with a spoon until all courgettes are coated, then add the nutmeg and the plant milk, slightly warm.
  • Stir well and allow the sauce to thicken (it will take 2 to 5 minutes). Set aside to cool.
  • Add all the ingredients for the dough to a mixer and work the dough for 10 minutes with the hook.
  • Coat with margarine (or vegan butter) a 24 cm round tray with high edges (at least 8 cm), then pour approximately ⅔ of the dough.
  • Add the creamy courgette filling, then cover with the remaining ⅓ of the dough, making sure to leave excess dough around the sides to allow sealing the edges together. This will prevent the filling leaking out the pastry.
  • Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top if you like, and allow to proof until it double its size (for around 1 hour and half).
  • Preheat the oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake the bread for 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
