½ tsp salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
1 tbsp neutral oil
¾ cup warm water, plus more as needed
1 tsp vegan butter, for brushing (optional)

Instructions

1
Whisk together the whole wheat flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the oil and rub it into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse, slightly damp sand.
2
Pour in the warm water gradually, stirring with a fork or your hand, until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–7 minutes until smooth, soft, and slightly tacky — it should spring back slowly when pressed with a finger. If the dough tears or feels stiff, add water 1 tsp at a time; if it sticks to your hands, dust lightly with flour.
