Step 1
In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar.

Make a well in the center and add warm water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Step 3
Stir until a rough dough forms, then knead by hand on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 4 equal portions.

Step 8
Brush the tops of each flatbread with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle generously with za'atar spice blend.
