Instructions
- Add the warm water and sugar to small bowl. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
- Sprinkle the yeast over the top of the water. Let it sit until foamy, about 5-10 minutes.
- Combine the flour and salt in a separate large bowl.
- Add the yeast mixture, yogurt, and olive oil to the flour. Mix to form a soft dough. Add more flour if too sticky.
- Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic (or in a stand mixer for 3-4 minutes).
- Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch down the dough, and divide into 10 equal pieces.
- Roll each into a ball.
- Flatten and roll each into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.
- Cook each flatbread in a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes per side, until puffy and golden brown.
Notes
- Warm water: It's important that the water be at the correct temperature. If the water is too hot, it can kill the yeast. If it's too cool, it can slow the rising time.
- Active dry yeast: You can also use an equal amount of instant yeast in place of the active dry yeast. There's no proofing required when using instant yeast.
- All-purpose flour: For chewier flatbread, you can use bread flour in place of all-purpose flour.
- Yogurt: I use plain yogurt, not plain Greek yogurt in this recipe.
