Moroccan Bread Recipe
Here’s yet another Moroccan dish you may be interested it to try in your own kitchen – Moroccan Beef Tagine with Fennel and Artichoke Bottoms. Meat can be left out and plenty of vegetables can be used instead. Cabbage is one of my favorite vegetables to use in this meat-lover’s dish.
- 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 Tbsp Dry Yeast
- 1 Tbsp Salt
- 1 tsp Sugar or Coconut sugar
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- 2 Tbsp Dry Milk (you can omit it)
- Warm Water to bind all ingredients together
- 1 cup of Oatmeal for topping
- 1. In a big bowl mix all ingredients, including butter, with each other.
- 2. Use warm water to bind this mixture into a consistency of a dough. It should not be liquidy!
- 3. Leave the dough to rest and rise, about 15 minutes.
- 4. Form dough balls of a desired size and place them on a tray to rise, about 15-30 minutes.
- 5. With a roller or using the palm of your hand, flatten each dough ball into a pancake. Use flour as needed to prevent the sticking. Sprinkle with oatmeal as decoration.
- 6. Use parchment paper on a baking sheet. Place dough pancakes onto the baking sheet or baking mats.
- 7. Bake at 400F until the bread will be of golden color.
- Depending on how quickly the yeast rises, the cooking time will be anywhere from 1 hr to 1hr 15 mins.
- I allow the dough to rise at least once. If you are short for time, you can bake with 1 rising. But if you want the bread to be fluffier, then allow the dough to rise at least twice.

I looove soft warm bread. I’m not sure of the texture of this one, but I’m definitely a bread lover. I don’t do the crunchy bread, but this one looks interesting enough to try it either way!

It is not crunchy at all.
You will enjoy the texture of it. It is soft and can be used for sandwich if you wish. Great dipping bread, too.

Wow, this looks delicious – I’ve never seen Moroccan bread before but would love to have a go at making it. Is it possible to find it in the supermarket too?
Loise,
I have never seen it in supermarket!
There are some ethnic stores around, but I did not find Moroccan bread there.
So, it is easier to bake it than to find it in stores!

Not about to start making my own bread–but I sure would like to find this in a store somewhere-It sounds like I would really enjoy it.
How long does it usually take your bread to cook? I like an estimate so I know when to start checking. Thanks
Pat,
It’s about an hour if I allow it to rise 2-3 times. Sometimes, I just allow the dough to rise once, and then start baking.
If I want the bread to be fluffier, I do allow it to rise at least 2 times: 1st, in the bowl; 2nd, on the tray as I form those dough balls.
