Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/4 cups warm water (105°F to 115°F)
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
3 cups (or more) all purpose flour
2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
5 tablespoons (about) olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons za'atar*
*Available at specialty foods stores and Middle Eastern markets, and online at adrianascaravan.com.

Steps:
