Ingredients

1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour

1 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour

3 T Za’atar, plus more for sprinkling on top

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup buttermilk

2 T olive oil

1 1/2 cup crumbled Feta cheese 

1/2 cup sliced black olives

1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions

Directions

Preheat the oven or toaster oven to 350F/180C. In a medium-sized bowl mix together the whole wheat flour, white whole wheat flour, Za’atar, baking powder, and salt. In a larger bowl mix together the beaten eggs, buttermilk, and oil. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, just stirring enough that the ingredients are barely moistened. Then gently fold in the olives, green onions, and Feta. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan and sprinkle a little more Za’atar over the top. Bake 40-45 minutes, or until bread is cooked through and lightly browned on top. Gently remove the hot bread from the loaf pan and let it cool on a wire rack for 10 or 15 minutes, then slice and enjoy. This kept well for one night in the refrigerator, but it’s best freshly made. I don’t think it would stay good much longer than one day, so be sure to share if you can’t eat it all right away!.
