 Prep & Cook Time

  • Prep: 5 minutes

  • Cook: 5–7 minutes

  • Total: ~10–12 minutes

 Servings

Makes 8–10 flatbreads

Ingredients

For the Bread

  • 4 cups (480 g) all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup (220 g) plain yogurt

  • 1 cup (200 ml) water (room temperature)

  • 1 packet (10 g) baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon (8 g) salt

  • 1 tablespoon (10 ml) vegetable oil

(Optional for brushing: butter or olive oil)

 Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

  2. Add Wet Ingredients
    Add yogurt, water, and vegetable oil. Mix until a soft dough forms.

  3. Knead Briefly
    Knead for about 1–2 minutes until smooth. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
    👉 If sticky, add 1–2 tablespoons of flour.

  4. Divide the Dough
    Divide into 8–10 equal balls. Cover with a towel and rest for 2–3 minutes.

  5. Roll Out
    Roll each ball into a thin circle (about 6–7 inches / 15–18 cm).

  6. Cook on Pan (No Oven!)
    Heat a dry non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium heat.
    Cook each flatbread 1–2 minutes per side until golden spots appear and it puffs slightly.

  7. Finish & Serve
    Brush with butter or oil if desired. Stack and keep covered to stay warm.

 Notes

  • No yeast needed—baking powder makes it fluffy.

  • Yogurt keeps the bread soft and tender.

  • Best eaten warm but stays soft when cooled.

Tips for Best Results

  • Don’t overcook or the bread may become dry.

  • Roll evenly so it cooks uniformly.

  • Cover cooked bread with a cloth to trap steam and keep softness.

  • For extra layers, brush lightly with oil and fold before final rolling.

 Serving Ideas

  • Wraps with cheese, eggs, or vegetables

  • Dip into hummus, yogurt sauce, or soup

  • Use as a quick pizza base

  • Serve with honey or jam for breakfast
