Nurodymai

Mix. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the dough dry ingredients and mix well to combine. Add the warm water, warm milk and oil. Run the stand mixer until a ball of dough forms, about 5-7 minutes. If the dough is too dry and feels crumbly, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until you have a soft and supple dough ball. You can also mix the dough in a large bowl and knead manually on the countertop.

Rise. Rub the dough ball lightly with oil on all sides and let it rise, covered with a towel or plastic wrap, in the bowl of the stand mixer for up to 1 hour in a warm place.

Divide and shape. After the bread dough has risen to about double its original size, divide it into 6 equal pieces (use a kitchen scale to get perfect portions). Shape each piece of dough into a tight ball and rest them on your kitchen counter for 10 minutes, covered, so that the gluten can relax.

Flatten. Using a rolling pin, flatten the dough balls into a ⅛-¼ inch (0.3-0.6cm) thick, about 6-8 inches (15-20cm) in diameter.

Dress. Preheat your oven to 425F (220C). Transfer the flat flatbread discs to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Mix the zaatar spice blend with olive oil in a small bowl and apply a thin layer to each flatbread. You may need to do this in stages depending on how big your oven is. Poke the manakish with a fork a few times to prevent it from puffing.

Bake. Bake in the preheated oven for 9-13 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the zaatar topping is bubbling lightly. Don’t over-bake. We want these flatbreads to be soft and pliable. Note: If you peek into the oven mid-bake and you see a big bubble forming, quickly open the oven door, poke it with a fork or knife and close the door back up.
