Zaatar is one of my all time favourite spices. It’s so versatile and pairs with so many food dishes! This time around I made zaatar twists using puff pastry dough and a simple mix of zaatar and olive oil. These didn’t last long in my house. They’re good dipped into labneh (strained yogurt) or eaten along side any meal.
I used 4×4 puff pastry sheets but feel free to use any size and just adjust the cooking time. This recipe is very forgiving. A little more or less in zaatar or size of puff pastry won’t be a problem at all!
Ingredients
10 puff pastry squares (4x4)
5 tbsp zaatar
8 tbsp olive oil
1 egg
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375
In a bowl, mix zaatar with olive oil.
Spread 1 tbsp of the zaatar mixture onto 1 puff pastry square ensuring not to get the edges.
Top with another puff pastry square and press edges together to seal.
Slice it into 4 strips and then twist them to create the twisted shape.
Whisk egg in a small bowl and brush over each one.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
