Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 0.5 cups Tapioca starch
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 1 tablespoon Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm water (approximately 110°F/43°C)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Za'atar spice blend
- 1 tablespoon Optional: Sesame seeds for topping
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, psyllium husk powder, instant yeast, sugar, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
Step 3
Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes at room temperature. This allows the psyllium husk to hydrate, creating a pliable dough.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 5
After the dough has rested, divide it into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball or flatten it into a small disc, about 1/2-inch thick, depending on your preference.
Step 6
Place the discs onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced slightly apart. Brush the tops with a light coating of olive oil.
Step 7
Sprinkle the za'atar spice blend generously over each bread disc. If desired, top with sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.
Step 8
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden and the bread feels firm to the touch.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with dipping oils, hummus, or as a side to your favorite dishes!
