Mix the za'atar, sesame seeds, and olive oil in a bowl.
Divide the dough into balls and roll thin, keeping the edges from becoming too thin.
Spread the za'atar mixture over the dough.
Bake the manakish at 220°C for 14 minutes.
Rest for 3 minutes after baking and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Mix the za'atar with olive oil until spreadable; sprinkled on dry, it falls off in the oven.
