Za'atar Flatbread/King Arthur Flour פיתות זעתר
Za'atar, Lemon And Oil Topping
1/4 cup za'atar spice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
juice of two lemons, about 1/2 cup juice (I use only 1 lemon)
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil (I use onlr1/3 cup oil)
Bread
1 tablespoon instant yeast
2 cups lukewarm water (l00°F to 110°F)
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
5 cups King Arthur Unbleached Special Bread Flour (I use 4 cups Bread flour)
1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
Topping: Stir together all the ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. Bread: Whisk together the yeast, water, and sugar. Stir in the oil, the all-purpose flour and most of the bread flour, then the salt. Mix to form a soft dough. Knead the dough for 8 to 10 minutes, till it's elastic and supple, adding additional flour as needed.
Place the dough in a large, well-greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and a tea towel, and let rise until doubled. Alternatively, allow the dough a long, cool rise in the fridge, several hours or overnight (or up to 3 days). Bring the dough to room temperature before shaping; it'll rise as it warms up.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Stretch or roll the pieces into irregular slabs, and let rest for 15 minutes, covered with a tea towel. Spread some olive oil/za'atar mixture onto each piece of dough.
Preheat the grill to its hottest temperature. Place the flatbreads gently on the grill. Cover and bake for 1 to 2 minutes, then check for doneness. Allow to bake until the tops begin to brown. Brush with additional topping if desired, and remove from the grill. Yield: 8 large, irregular-shaped flatbreads

Dear rosa,
thank you very much for your comment!
It's not the first time I bake these flat breads, but last time I broke some part of my very old mixer with this dough.. and now with the new mixer it was very easy to mix it..
We like dipping this flat bread in the remaining topping - yummy :-)
