Za'atar rolls

I was inspired by a blog post that i seen a while back, and i thought that's such a good idea! za'atar rolls..but with my own twist, I added some feta cheese to give it an extra kick and I love how they turned out, and so did my family who demolished them all..lol

for those of you who don't know what za'atar is, its a mix of middle eastern herbs such as oregano, thyme and savory mixed together with seseame seeds and sumac.I would describe the taste as herbal/tangy/nutty/toasty all at the same time.. its a wonderful blend.

Ingredients:

Dough: same as my pizza dough, check that out.

Filling: olive oil, Za'atar and feta cheese 

That's all for the ingredients!

Method:

1. roll out the dough in a rectangle about 1/2 inch thickness.

2.spread some olive oil on dough and then sprinkle za'atar on top generously.

3. crumble feta cheese on top.

4. Roll dough.

5. cut into about 1 1/2 inch pieces.

6. place on oiled and floured baking tray and bake for 20-25 mins at 180 C/ 350 F.
