- 2 pieces large naan bread or plain flatbread
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp za'atar spice blend
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 cup feta cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh mint leaves
How to make Za'atar & Feta Swirl Garlic Flatbread
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a small bowl. Mince 2 cloves of garlic and stir them into the melted butter, along with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- Brush the garlic butter mixture evenly over one side of each of the 2 large naan breads or plain flatbreads. Place the flatbreads, buttered-side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a separate small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of za'atar spice blend with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Stir well to form a thick paste.
- Using a small spoon or a piping bag, dollop small amounts of the za'atar paste over the garlic-buttered surface of each flatbread. Then, use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the za'atar paste into the garlic butter, creating an attractive pattern.
- Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the edges of the flatbread are golden brown and slightly crispy, and the za'atar is fragrant. The exact time will depend on the thickness of your flatbread.
- While the flatbreads are still hot, crumble 1/2 cup of feta cheese evenly over both flatbreads. The residual heat will soften the feta slightly.
- Remove from the oven and transfer to a cutting board. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped mint leaves.
- Slice each flatbread into wedges or strips. Serve immediately as a warm appetizer or side dish.
