Prepare Yeast Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of lukewarm water, 2¼ tsp of active or instant dry yeast, and 1 tsp of honey. Allow this mixture to sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.

Mix Ingredients: Once the yeast is foamy, add 2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp of tahini, and 1 tsp of sea salt. Gradually add in 3 to 4 cups of bread flour, mixing until a sticky dough forms.

Knead Dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth. Place in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for 1 to 1.5 hours until doubled.

Shape the Dough: Punch the dough down, divide into two pieces, and stretch each piece onto a parchment-lined baking sheet into oblong loaves.

Final Proof and Bake: Let the loaves rise for an additional 30 minutes, preheat oven to 375°F. Brush tops with olive oil, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and dimple the surface before baking for 25-30 minutes.

Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with olive oil or dips like hummus.
