Work the flour, salt, and water in a mixing bowl for 6 minutes until you have a smooth dough; cover and rest for 10 minutes.
Mash the labneh with a fork and mix in the zaatar, sumac, and 1 tablespoon olive oil to prepare the filling.
Divide the dough into 4 balls and roll each into a thin yufka; sprinkle sesame seeds over the top, spread the filling inside, and fold.
Cook the gozleme in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat for 8 minutes, until both sides are golden.
Transfer to a plate, cut into triangles, and serve hot with extra olive oil and sumac drizzled over the top.
💡 Tip: Mix the zaatar with olive oil 5 minutes ahead so the aroma deepens. Drain the labneh in cheesecloth for 5 minutes to keep the gozleme from becoming damp.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice into triangles, plate, and complete a Levant breakfast with fresh mint, sliced tomatoes, and olives.
