A thin Lebanese flatbread topped with a blend of za’atar and olive oil, baked quickly until lightly browned at the edges. Serve it hot for breakfast or as a snack; it can be folded and eaten by hand.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead and proof the dough

30 min

Dissolve the fresh yeast in the lukewarm water. Add the all-purpose flour, olive oil, and salt, then knead into a soft dough. Cover and let it rise for 30 minutes, until doubled in size.

2

Make the za’atar topping

5 min

Mix the za’atar spice blend with the olive oil into a paste.

3

Shape and add the topping

10 min

Divide the dough into 6 pieces and roll each into a thin round. Spread the za’atar paste over the rounds and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

4

Bake

10 min

Bake in a preheated oven until the edges are lightly browned, then serve hot.

Reminder

Mix the za’atar spice blend with olive oil into a paste before spreading it over the dough; this helps it spread evenly and keeps it from burning as it bakes. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and sesame.
