Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup warm water (more if needed)
For the Garlic Butter:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Pinch of salt
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
Add the yogurt and olive oil. Slowly pour in the warm water while mixing to form a soft dough. Adjust consistency by adding more water or flour if needed.
-
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a towel and let rest for 20 minutes.
-
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces, roll each piece into a ball, then flatten each ball into a 1/4-inch thick circle using a rolling pin.
-
Heat a nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden with light charring and puffed up.
-
In a small saucepan or microwave, melt the butter with the minced garlic and a pinch of salt. Stir in the parsley.
-
Brush each hot flatbread generously with the garlic butter.
-
Serve immediately or keep warm by wrapping in a clean kitchen towel.
Notes
For a twist, try adding fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme to the dough.
To make a cheesy garlic flatbread, sprinkle grated mozzarella or Parmesan on top while cooking.
Whole wheat flour can be used for a slightly healthier alternative.
