In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add in the water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
While the dough rests, prepare the filling by combining coconut yogurt, nutritional yeast, tapioca flour, lemon juice, garlic powder, red chili flakes, and crumbled tofu in a medium-sized bowl. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Preheat your oven to 450Β°F (230Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Divide the rested dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into an oval shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
Place each oval on the prepared baking sheet. Fold the edges of the dough upward and inward to create a boat-like shape, leaving the center open for the filling.
Spoon the dairy-free filling generously into the center of each dough boat.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove and carefully crack a veggie egg into the center of each Khachapuri boat.
Continue baking for another 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh dill. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil before serving hot.
