Ingredients
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup water warm
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus more if needed
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 tablespoons PLAIN yogurt
- 1 egg large
Instructions
- Combine yeast, sugar, and warm water in a bowl. Let sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup flour and salt. Add the frothy yeast mixture, olive oil, yogurt, and egg. Stir to combine.
- Gradually add remaining 1 1/2 cups flour until a soft dough forms. If the mixture is too wet, you can add up to 1/3 cup more flour until the dough is easier to work with.
- Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth, about 3 minutes.
- Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Divide dough into 8 pieces, roll each into a ball, then flatten into discs. Cook in a hot skillet until bubbles form, flip and cook until golden.
