QUICK FOCACCIA IN 5 MINUTES

Ingredients

2 eggs Pinch of paprika Pinch of black pepper ¾ cup buttermik or water 100 g shredded cheese 1 ¼ cups flour 1 tablespoon of baking powder 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves or (dried thyme) 1 tablespoon of Zaatar 2-3 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

• In a medium bowl whisk the eggs with paprika and black pepper. Pour in the buttermilk or water, add fresh thyme, shredded cheese and give the batter a quick mix.
• Add the dry ingredients, all purpose flour, baking powder, zaatar and a pinch of salt.( If you add the zaatar don't add salt because it's already salted).
• Stir all together, until just combined. It's okay if there are a few lumps; overmixing can make the bread tough.
• Heat 2 - 3 tablespoons of olive oil in skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat. Pour the batter into the skillet making a large bread loaf.
• Cover the skillet with a lid to trap the heat. This will help the bread cook through evenly.
• Cook the bread on medium-low heat for about 3-5 minutes or until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges begin to set.
• Flip the bread using a flat plate. Continue to cook, uncovered, for another 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown on both sides and cooked through. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean when the bread is done.
• Remove the bread from the pan, let it cool for a few minutes, and then slice it into pieces. Serve It warm.
• Enjoy your easy homemade thyme focaccia bread! It's perfect for a quick breakfast or brunch.
