Quick Garlic and Herb Yogurt Flatbreads
These tender, pillowy flatbreads utilize a magic dough base enriched with Greek yogurt for instant gratification without the need for yeast or rising time. Infused with a garlic and herb butter finish, they offer a soft texture and savory flavor profile that rivals traditional naan or pita. Perfect for scooping up hummus or serving alongside a hearty stew.
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full fat preferred)
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp olive oil, for greasing the pan
Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- 2
Add the Greek yogurt to the bowl and mix with a spoon or spatula until a shaggy dough begins to form.
- 3
Turn the dough out onto a generously floured surface and knead gently for 3 to 4 minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly elastic but still tacky.
- 4
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
- 5
Using a rolling pin, roll each ball out into a rustic circle or oval, roughly 1/4-inch thick.
- 6
Heat a griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot, then lightly brush with a small amount of olive oil.
- 7
Place a flatbread on the hot griddle and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the dough puffs up and golden-brown char marks appear on the bottom.
- 8
Flip the flatbread and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until cooked through.
- 9
While the bread cooks, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley in a small bowl.
- 10
Brush the hot flatbreads generously with the garlic-herb butter mixture immediately upon removing them from the pan. Serve warm.
