Categories     Breads

Time 3h30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon dried yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 1/3 cups warm water
1 1/8 lbs plain flour
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
3 tablespoons sesame seeds

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the yeast sugar and 2-3 tablespoons of the warm water and set aside.
  • Sift the flour into a mixing bowl and add in the salt. Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in the yeast mixture and the remaining warm water.
  • Knead together until the mixture forms a stiff dough.
  • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 10-15 minutes, adding in a tablespoon of olive oil to the dough to soften it.
  • Wash and dry the mixing bowl and rub with a little of the olive oil. Return the dough to the ball and roll it around the bowl until well oiled. Cover with a clean cloth and set aside in a warm place to rise for 2 hours.
  • Knead the dough again, then divide it into 10 portions.
  • Roll each dough portion between your palms until smooth and round.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll out each portion into a circle. Cover the dough circles and set aside for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F Place 2 large baking sheets in the oven to heat up.
  • Brush the tops of each dough circle with a little of the olive oil. Mix the remaining olive oil with the thyme, marjoram and sesame seeds and spread the mixture evenly over the surface of each dough circle.
  • Slide the dough circles onto the hot baking sheets and bake for 8-10 minutes.
  • Remove and cool. Serve.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my bread didn't turn out right. It was too dry and crumbly.

This bread was a disaster! The dough was sticky and difficult to work with, and the bread turned out flat and dense. I would not recommend this recipe.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The bread was dense and dry, and the thyme flavor was barely noticeable.

I thought this bread was just okay. The thyme flavor was a bit too strong for my taste. The bread was also a bit dry.

I've tried many thyme bread recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The dough is easy to work with and the bread turns out perfectly every time. The thyme flavor is just right - not too overpowering, but definitely noticeable.

This bread was easy to make and turned out great. The crust was crispy and the inside was soft and fluffy. The thyme flavor was subtle but added a nice touch. I served it with hummus and baba ganoush, and it was a perfect combination.

I've been baking bread for years, and this is one of the best recipes I've tried. The dough was easy to work with, and the bread turned out perfectly golden brown and crusty. I'll definitely be making this again.

This thyme bread was a delight. The aroma of the thyme and the crunchiness of the crust were perfect. I served it with a simple salad, and it was a hit with my family.
