Lebanese Breakfast Obsession

Middle Eastern Breakfast for this month's Daring Cooks.

Topped with grated cheese, eggs or sweet treats, these flatbreads make it pizza time any time

Manousheh - A Lebanese breakfast item typically eaten on the go and found in corner bakeries all over the country. We bake our dough to a crispy exterior and warm chewy interior; toppings can be either vegetarian or meat.

Manakeesh, Manakish, Manaeesh, Manaqish or in singular form Manousheh is the Middle East's version of a pizza. It is usually topped with herbs, cheese or minced meat and can be served for breakfast or lunch. Very popular in Syria, Lebanon and the Arab Peninsula.

The Bleecker Street shop specializes in baked-to-order flatbreads, topped six different ways (or eight, if you count halvah and Nutella for dessert).

I’ve shared how much more likely I am to eat breakfast when it’s a meze style – I just love being able to sample from a spread of olives, cheese, fresh vegetables, bread. Pita is nice, but when I have a little extra time, I make up a batch of manakish zaatar to eat over a few days. Topped with a fragrant, zingy blend of spices, these Lebanese flatbreads make lovely snacks and appetizers, too.
