Step 1

In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Add water and 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and mix with a spoon into a sticky dough (do not knead).

Step 2

Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise at room temperature for one hour.

Step 3

Place the dough on a well-floured surface and form it into a rectangle or circle (~0.4 inch/1 cm thick). Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let it rise for another 45 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 445°F (230°C).

Step 5

Gently press your fingertips into the dough to create diagonal lines. Brush the flatbread with olive oil and sprinkle with sesame and Nigella seeds.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes until golden brown. Let it cool on a wire rack before cutting.
