Description

A quick and flavorful Middle Eastern-inspired toast featuring creamy labneh, za’atar spice, and fresh vegetables on toasted bread. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a light snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices thick bread (sourdough or country loaf)
  • 4 tablespoons labneh
  • 2 teaspoons za’atar spice blend
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 4 to 5 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Pinch of salt (optional)


Instructions

  1. Toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden and crisp.
  2. In a small bowl, combine za’atar with olive oil to form a spreadable paste.
  3. Spread labneh evenly over the warm toast.
  4. Spoon the za’atar mixture over the labneh and swirl slightly for flavor blending.
  5. Arrange cucumber slices and cherry tomatoes on the side of the plate.
  6. Sprinkle a pinch of salt if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use thick, sturdy bread for the best texture and structure.
  • Let labneh sit at room temperature for easier spreading.
  • Za’atar oil can be prepped in advance and stored for up to a week.
  • Top with fresh herbs or pomegranate seeds for extra flair.
