No-Yeast Yogurt Flatbread
Description
This flatbread recipe combines plain flour with Greek yogurt, bicarbonate of soda, and salt into a sticky dough that rests briefly before being divided, rolled out, and cooked in a lightly oiled pan. The lack of yeast eliminates rising time, and the bicarbonate helps with slight leavening for a tender, soft bread. Pan frying each piece for 1-2 minutes per side creates lightly golden flatbreads with a gentle chew.
The texture is soft yet sturdy enough to fold or use as a wrap. The flavor is mild with a hint of tang from the yogurt. Resting the dough is important to allow hydration and easier handling without excessive flour addition.
These flatbreads are versatile for serving with soups, salads, or for wrapping fillings. They can be enjoyed hot from the pan or cooled for later use.
Resting the dough avoids unnecessary extra flour that can dry the bread and ensures manageable dough consistency.
Ingredients
- 280 g plain flour (all purpose flour, 2 ¼ cup)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt ( 250 ml)
- ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large bowl, sift the flour, add the salt and bicarbonate of soda.
- Mix them well, then add the yogurt.
- Use your hands to gently form a dough, which is sticky at this point, then cover the dough with a foil, and leave to rest for 20 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 6 balls, and dust each ball generously with flour.
- Use a rolling pin to flatten each ball up.
- Heat up a non-stick frying pan on a medium heat, add about a half a teaspoon of oil, then cook the flatbreads on each side for 1-2 minutes, or until cooked.
- Serve hot or cold.
Notes
- Allow the dough to rest for 20 minutes before shaping to improve texture and handling.
- Avoid adding extra flour when the dough feels sticky initially; resting makes it easier to work with.
