Ingredients
Dough
- 2 cups unbleached flour
- 1cup multigrain bread flour
- 1teaspoon salt
- 2teaspoons fast-rising yeast
- 1/3cup olive oil
- 1cup warm water
Za’atar Topping
- 3Tablespoons za’atar spice mix
- 5Tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Stir together all your dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl fitted with your kneading hook.
- Warm your oil a little and add it together with your warm water to the the dry ingredients.
- Mix until it forms a smooth, soft dough. Add a little more flour if it is still too sticky.
- Oil the bowl and dough and cover with a cloth. Put in a warm location and allow the dough to rise for a half hour, or until double in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide into four or six balls. Shape each ball into a flat disc approximately six inches in diameter. Place on a baking sheet lightly coated with cornmeal to prevent sticking.
- Mix together the spice mix and the oil. Gently brush a generous quantity over each bread, leaving a little uncovered crust around the edges.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F., letting brushed bread rise for 10-15 minutes while the oven is heating.
- Bake in your hot oven for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown.
- These are best served warm but they reheat well! Add on some traditional chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, and/or olives. Enjoy something different!
