Gozleme Turkish Spinach and Feta Flatbread

Gozleme is a Turkish special flatbread with different kinds of filling. This is one of my favorite with spinach and Feta cheese. This is a wonderful flatbread that is crusty outside with soft and chewy inside filled with delicious filling.

Ingredients

• To make the dough -
• All Purpose flour - 3 cups
• Active Dry yeast - 2 1/4 tsp
• Sugar - 1 tsp
• Olive oil - 3 TBSP
• Yogurt - 2 TBSP
• Salt - 1 tsp
• Warm water - 1 1/4 cup might need more or less

To make the Filling -

• Spinach - 10 oz chopped
• Onion - 1 finely chopped
• Feta cheese - 8 oz
• Crushed red pepper - 1 1/2 tsp adjust based on spice level
• Olive oil - 2 tsp

Instructions

To make the dough -

1. I made the dough in my stand mixer. In the bowl of the mixer, add the flour and salt and mix to combine.
2. In a measuring cup, heat about 1 cup of water. Add the active dry yeast and sugar to the water and mix well. Cover the cup and let the yeast proof for about 10 minutes.
3. The yeast would be bubbly and foamy at the end of 10 minutes. If the yeast does not appear foamy, then the yeast might be dead and you have to start with a new batch.
