Zaatar Flatbread with Labneh
Warm, pillowy flatbread smothered in zaatar and olive oil, served with creamy labneh. This is my version of the ultimate Middle Eastern snack.
Ingredients
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 200 g Greek yogurt (full-fat)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp zaatar
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 200 g labneh (or strained yogurt)
- 1 tsp sumac (for garnish)
If you have never made flatbread at home, prepare to be surprised by how easy it is. No yeast, no rising time, no kneading until your arms hurt. Just flour, yogurt, and a hot pan.
The dough takes 5 minutes to make. You roll it thin, brush it with olive oil and zaatar, and cook it in a screaming hot pan until it puffs up and gets those beautiful char spots. The whole process from flour to eating is about 20 minutes.
Zaatar is my favorite spice blend — it is thyme, sesame, and sumac and it smell
