Directions

  1. Mix the lukewarm water, honey, and yeast in a bowl, and let it sit for 5 minutes to activate.
  2. In a larger bowl, mix the yogurt, olive oil, and salt.
  3. Transfer the yeast mixture to the bowl and stir.
  4. Add the flour, mix, and knead very well for 5-10 minutes, until the dough becomes elastic (see notes).
  5. Lightly grease a bowl, place the dough inside, cover, and let it rest in a warm place for 90 minutes or until doubled in volume.
  6. Deflate the dough, divide it into 2 equal pieces, and transfer each to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  7. Shape the dough with your fingers into the form of a lagana.
  8. Brush with water or, if you want it sweeter, brush with a honey and water solution.
  9. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and press lightly with your palms so they stick.
  10. Cover and let it rest for another 30 minutes.
  11. Make deep finger indentations and bake in a preheated oven at 175°C for approximately 15-20 minutes.
