Manakish is a traditional Levantine flatbread often topped with a variety of ingredients such as za’atar (a blend of thyme, sesame seeds, and sumac), cheese, ground meat, or vegetables. Originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, it is commonly enjoyed as a breakfast item or snack across countries like Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. The dough for Manakish is typically made from flour, water, yeast, and olive oil, which is then baked in a hot oven or on a griddle. Its nutritional profile varies depending on the toppings; za’atar provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits due to its natural spices, while olive oil adds healthy fats. Cheese-topped versions can be high in saturated fat and calories, while meat toppings may contain more protein. Opting for whole-grain dough or lighter toppings can make Manakish a more balanced choice. This versatile dish is loved for its rich flavors and cultural significance.
