Ingredients: - 4 cups all-purpose flour - 1 tbsp. sugar - 1 tsp. salt - 1 1/2 tsp. instant yeast - 1 1/2 cups warm water - 1/4 cup olive oil Tools: - Mixing bowl - Measuring cups and spoons - Wooden spoon or stand mixer - Baking sheet - Plastic wrap - Rolling pin - Kitchen towel How to Make: 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. 2. Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. 3. Mix the ingredients together until the dough comes together. 4. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. 5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let it rest in a warm place for 45-60 minutes until the dough doubles in size. 6. Punch the dough down and divide it into 8-10 equal pieces. 7. Take each piece of dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 6-8 inch circle. 8. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. 9. Cover the dough circles with a kitchen towel and let them rest for 15-20 minutes. 10. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). 11. When your dough has finished resting, gently brush the surface with water. 12. Using a fork or a sharp knife, poke holes all over the surface of the bread. 13. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes until the bread turns lightly golden. 14. Remove the bread from the oven and place each one on a wire rack to cool. 15. Once cooled, store the bread in an airtight container. Tips: - For a chewier bread, use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour. - Don't overdo it with the toppings as it may cause the bread to become soggy. - Keep an eye on the bread when baking, as the cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the dough. Note: - Arabic bread is best served fresh but can be stored in the freezer in an airtight container for up to a month. Enjoy your homemade Arabic bread with a side of hummus or a freshly chopped salad. This easy recipe will have you making fresh bread in no time, perfect for any meal.
