Ingredients
- 2½ cups (315 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup (240 g) plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2–4 tbsp warm water, as needed
Optional Garlic Butter
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the Greek yogurt and olive oil. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- Add warm water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 3–5 minutes, until smooth and soft.
- Cover the dough with a clean towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a thin circle, about ⅛ inch (3 mm) thick.
- Heat a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook one flatbread at a time for 1½–2 minutes per side, or until bubbles form and golden brown spots appear.
- Keep the cooked flatbreads wrapped in a clean kitchen towel to stay warm and soft.
- If desired, brush with the garlic butter while still warm.
Tips
- Don’t add too much flour—the dough should be soft and slightly tacky.
- Cover the cooked flatbreads with a towel to keep them soft.
- Roll the dough evenly for uniform cooking.
- Add herbs or spices such as rosemary, oregano, or cumin to the dough for extra flavor.
