Recipe story

Toast bread with a wonderful thyme flavor... mmm, it tastes even better with a piece of cream cheese or labneh for breakfast. You have to make it yourself and try it.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon yeast
  • 1 tablespoon powdered milk
  • 1 tablespoon yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 cup washed thyme leaves, drained well
  • About 1 cup lukewarm water, or as needed for the dough
  • Olive oil for greasing the pan and dough

Method

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together
  2. Add the oil, vinegar, and yogurt and mix
  3. Finally, add the lukewarm water gradually, bringing the dough together and kneading until you get a soft, tender dough
  4. Add the thyme leaves over the dough and knead again

    Timers: 25 min
