Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.75 cups Plain yogurt (unsweetened)
- 0.25 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter or olive oil (for brushing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
Add the plain yogurt and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Gradually pour in the water while stirring until a dough starts to form.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, add a small amount of flour as needed.
Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for about 10 minutes to relax the gluten.
Once rested, divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten into a thin, round disc about 6-7 inches in diameter using a rolling pin or your hands.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place one flatbread into the skillet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the underside develops golden brown spots.
Flip the flatbread and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side. Remove from the skillet and brush lightly with melted butter or olive oil for added flavor.
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining dough portions. Keep cooked flatbreads warm in a clean kitchen towel while preparing the rest.
Serve warm with your favorite dips, spreads, or alongside a main course.
