Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir well to distribute everything evenly.
Step 2: Add the Wet Ingredients
Add the warm water, Greek yogurt, and olive oil. Mix with a spoon until a rough dough begins to form.
Step 3: Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead for approximately 3–5 minutes until soft, smooth, and slightly elastic.
If the dough feels too sticky, sprinkle in a little flour. If it feels too dry, add a teaspoon of water.
Step 4: Divide the Dough
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and cover with a clean kitchen towel.
Let rest for 10 minutes.
Step 5: Roll Out the Flatbreads
Using a rolling pin, roll each dough ball into a round flatbread approximately ¼ inch thick.
Keep the thickness relatively even so the bread cooks properly.
Step 6: Heat the Skillet
Heat a large nonstick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
You don’t need to add oil to the pan.
Step 7: Cook the Flatbreads
Place one flatbread into the hot skillet.
Cook for approximately 1–2 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface and golden-brown spots develop underneath.
Flip and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining dough.
Step 8: Prepare the Garlic Butter
Mix the melted butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, and chili flakes.
Step 9: Brush and Serve
While the flatbreads are still warm, brush them generously with the garlic herb butter.
Stack them on a plate and cover with a clean towel to keep them soft and warm.
Tips for Perfect Flatbread
- Don’t add too much flour while kneading; the dough should remain soft.
- Letting the dough rest makes it easier to roll.
- Avoid cooking over low heat, as this can make the bread dry.
- Stack cooked flatbreads and cover them to retain moisture.
- For extra flavor, add garlic powder or dried oregano to the dough.
