INGREDIENTS:

- One tsp apple cider vinegar

INGREDIENT NOTES:
VEGAN NAAN:
- It makes the crispy base to hold the toppings and get golden while baking. You may utilize whole-wheat flatbread instead to add fiber content.
APPLE:
- This apple includes a natural sweet and tart taste in the flatbread. You may use Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples as another option.
VEGAN BRIE-STYLE CHEESE:
- Add this cheese for a savory taste, and it will maintain the sweet taste of maple syrup & apples. You may replace it with vegan camembert-style cheese as a substitute.
OLIVE OIL:
- Olive oil makes the crispy and golden edges of the flatbread. It keeps the base from getting dry while baking and improves the texture of the recipe. You may use any other mild vegetable oil as an alternative.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, warm the oven to 425°F and cover the sheet with baking paper.
- Include the flatbread on the sheet and brush its surface with olive oil lightly.
- Arrange the apple slices equally in a thin layer on the flatbread, then add vegan Brie-style cheese.
- Sprinkle chopped walnuts on the cheese and apple slices, then bake the flatbread for 12 minutes.
- Whisk the maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard in the bowl properly.
- Take the flatbread from the oven and drizzle the maple Dijon sauce on it.
- Lastly, sprinkle thyme and a pinch of sea salt on top, then serve it warm.
