Syrian Bread

Fresh baked Syrian Bread



This bread is a great flatbread to serve with lunch or dinner. We serve this bread with a wonderful dish called Lamb on the Rod. 

Grilled leg of lamb
Grilled Lamb served with Syrian Bread
 Where I grew up you can buy this bread in any grocery store, but not here in Western New York. Since we were having lamb on the rod I decided to make my own fresh.

So I did what anybody would do, I searched the internet, and found this recipe:


I modified it just a bit by using less yeast, I also doubled the recipe, which would have called for 3 teaspoons of yeast I used one package of dry yeast or 2-1/4 teaspoons. Sue’s recipe mixes the dough in a bread machine, but I used my KitchenAid Stand Mixer.

By doubling the recipe, I yielded one nice 12-inch flatbread and four small about 8 inches round flatbreads.

It came out perfect and was a delightful addition to our grilled lamb on the rod, so thank you. Sue Litster.

As always thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy it.
