In a large bowl, mix the flour, instant yeast, and salt together. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and warm water to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough into an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes until doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, clean and slice the mushrooms.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes until they are brown and tender. Stir in the fresh thyme, lemon juice, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness, forming a flatbread shape. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
Optionally sprinkle vegan cheese over the dough, then evenly distribute the sautéed mushroom mixture on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the flatbread crust is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle fresh parsley on top. Allow to cool slightly.
Drizzle with a bit of olive oil, garnish with fresh rocket (arugula), slice, and serve warm.
