Yoghurt Flatbreads

Easy Yoghurt Flatbreads which are thick, soft and chewy. Make this delicious, no-yeast flatbread recipe with step-by-step photos.

Ingredients

  • 500 g (3 ⅓ cups) plain flour, (all-purpose flour)
  • 15 g (1 tablespoon) baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt, preferably Maldon sea salt
  • 500 g (18 oz) natural yoghurt, full fat
  • vegetable oil for frying

Instructions 

Make the dough

  1. Place flour, baking powder, salt and yoghurt into the large bowl of a food processor.
  2. Blitz until everything comes together into a soft dough.
  3. Lightly flour your work surface. 
  4. Tip the dough onto your floured work surface.

Make the flatbreads

  1. Knead the dough lightly a few times until you have a soft ball which is no longer sticky. Add more flour as necessary.
  2. Roll the dough into a long log.
  3. Portion the dough into 12 pieces, or more if you prefer smaller flatbreads.
  4. Roll out one piece of dough into a round or oblong shape, about 5 mm thick. You might have to experiment with one or two pieces of dough to get your desired size and thickness.

Cook the flatbreads

  1. Heat a non-stick frying pan or non-stick crêpe pan with about 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Place one rolled out piece of dough into the pan.
  3. While the flatbread is cooking on one side, use a pastry brush or silicon brush to brush the top of the flatbread (the uncooked side) with some oil.
  4. When the flatbread is nicely golden on the under-side, and lots of air bubbles have formed on the surface, flip it over. It should take about 2-3 minutes to cook the first side.
  5. Cook the remaining side until it is lightly golden. This should take about 1-2 minutes. It won't be evenly coloured because of the air bubbles.
  6. Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough.
  7. Serve the flatbreads warm.

Kitchen Notes

  • RECIPE CREDIT
    This recipe is inspired by Jamie Oliver's Easy Flatbread recipe.
  • REHEATING LEFTOVERS
    Any leftover flatbreads can be kept in the fridge in a ziplock bag for several days. To reheat these flatbreads, you can microwave them until they are warmed through. I prefer to heat them on a non-stick pan for a few minutes each side.
