There's something magical about pulling a warm, puffed, golden bread from the oven—especially when it took almost no effort to make. This Fluffy Turkish Bread, known as Bazlama or sometimes Pide bread, is exactly that kind of magic.

Imagine tearing into a piece of bread so soft and pillowy that it practically melts in your mouth. The inside is tender and airy, perfect for soaking up olive oil, dips, or the juices from grilled meats. The outside is golden and lightly blistered from the high heat, giving just a hint of chew.

This is the bread you serve alongside Mediterranean feasts, the one that disappears from the basket before anything else. And here's the best part: it's surprisingly simple to make.
