Instrucțiuni

Make the Dough

In a large bowl, activate the yeast in warm water; allow 10 minutes for it to proof.

Add the salt, sugar and olive oil to bowl and use a wooden spoon to mix until combined. Wait a few minutes, then add the flour into the wet ingredients and mix with a spoon until the dough becomes shaggy and you’re no longer able to mix.

Transfer to a floured surface and knead the dough by hand to form a tight ball.

Place the dough back into the same oil-coated bowl. Cover with a plastic wrap or towel and set aside at room temperature to rise for 45-60 minutes.

Make the Zaatar Spread

Mix the zaatar with olive oil in small bowl until it forms a consistent and spreadable mixture.

Assemble and Bake

Preheat the oven to 450° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Divide the dough into 6-8 equal parts, depending on how large you’d like them. Use your fingers to spread each piece into a round flat disc, about 1/4 inch thickness.

Place 1-2 tablespoons of zaatar spread on each dough and use the back of the spoon to spread evenly. Place on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the dough becomes light golden in color and puffs slightly.

Enjoy warm with cheese and vegetables, if desired.
