Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
- 2½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- ¾ cup plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
- ½ cup warm water
Optional
- Olive oil or melted butter for brushing
Instructions
- Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the plain yogurt and warm water, then stir with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 2–3 minutes until it becomes smooth and soft but not sticky. Add additional flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- Divide and Roll: Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten and roll each ball into thin rounds approximately 6 to 7 inches wide.
- Cook the Flatbreads: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until golden spots appear and the bread puffs slightly, indicating it is cooked through.
- Serve Warm: Stack the cooked flatbreads and cover them with a towel to keep them soft. Optionally, brush with melted butter or olive oil before serving for added flavor and moisture.
Notes
- Use warm water to help the dough come together easily.
- Knead the dough just until smooth to keep the flatbreads soft.
- If dough is sticky, add a little more flour sparingly.
- Cook flatbreads on a preheated skillet for best results and even cooking.
- Store leftovers wrapped in foil or an airtight container to retain softness.
