Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons warm water (optional, for dough consistency)
- 2 tablespoons butter (optional, for brushing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the plain Greek yogurt and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix with a spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
If the dough feels too dry, add warm water one tablespoon at a time and knead gently until the dough comes together. It should be soft but not sticky.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for 1–2 minutes until smooth.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Flatten each ball into a disc about 1/4-inch thick using your hands or a rolling pin.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Do not add oil; the bread will cook on the dry surface.
Once the skillet is hot, place one dough disc onto the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until you see bubbles forming and the underside is lightly golden.
Flip the bread and cook for another 2–3 minutes until both sides are golden brown and the bread is cooked through.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough discs, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
Optional: Brush the cooked bread with melted butter for extra flavor before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or use as a base for wraps and sandwiches.
