Flaky Breakfast Bread
Table of Contents
Ingredients:
For the Dough:
4 cups baklava flour (480g)
1 teaspoon salt (8g)
2 glasses water (400ml)
For the Butter and Oil Mixture:
150g butter
1 tea glass oil (100ml)
Directions:
Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baklava flour and salt.
Gradually add the water, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Prepare the Butter and Oil Mixture:
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Add the oil to the melted butter and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
Roll Out the Dough:
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each part into a thin circle or rectangle.
Layer and Fold:
Brush a generous amount of the butter and oil mixture over the surface of each rolled-out dough piece.
Fold each piece of dough into an envelope shape by folding the edges towards the center.
Cook the Bread:
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place one folded dough piece in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Repeat with the remaining dough pieces, adding more butter and oil mixture to the skillet as needed.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve warm with a side of fresh fruit or yogurt.
Pair with a cup of tea or coffee for a complete breakfast.
Enjoy with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for a sweet touch.
