Khameer Bread (Egg-Free)

Ingredients

• 3 cups All-Purpose Flour
• 2 tsp Dry Yeast
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Cardamom Powder
• 1 cup Warm Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy)
• 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted
• 1/4 cup Apple Sauce

Instructions

1. 1In a large bowl, combine 3 cups of All-Purpose Flour, 2 tsp of Dry Yeast, 2 tbsp of Sugar, 1 tsp of Salt, and 1 tsp of Cardamom Powder. Whisk them together briefly.
2. 2Pour in 1 cup of Warm Milk, 2 tbsp of melted Unsalted Butter, and 1/4 cup of Apple Sauce. Stir with a spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough starts to form.
3. 3Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for 5 to 7 minutes. You will know it is ready when it feels smooth and elastic, like a soft rubber ball.
4. 4Lightly grease a clean bowl. Place the kneaded dough into the greased bowl, turning it once to coat the top. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and leave it in a warm place for 1 hour. The dough should double in size.
5. 5Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
6. 6Gently punch down the risen dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth, round disc about 1/2 inch thick.
7. 7Arrange the 6 shaped dough discs onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving a little space between each one.
8. 8Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. The Khameer bread is done when it is puffed up and the tops are a golden brown color. Serve warm.
