Garlic and Butter Flatbreads (Quick Yogurt Flatbread)
Soft, pan-cooked garlic butter flatbreads are a fast, satisfying alternative to traditional bread. Made with simple pantry staples and yogurt for tenderness, they’re best enjoyed hot, straight from the skillet.
Ingredients
- 350 g flour
- 250 g yogurt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 garlic cloves
- 30 g butter
- A little oil for the pan
Preparation
1) Make the dough
- Sift the flour into a mixing bowl.
- Create a well in the center and add the yogurt, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Stir and gradually pull in flour from the sides until a dough forms and all the flour is absorbed.
2) Shape and rest
- Knead briefly until you get a soft, smooth dough.
- Divide into 8 equal balls.
- Let them rest for 5 minutes.
3) Roll out the flatbreads
- Roll each ball into a thin round disc.
- Stack the rolled discs with baking paper between each one to keep them from sticking.
4) Cook in a pan
- Heat a pan over medium-high heat (about 7–8 out of 9).
- Lightly oil the surface.
- Cook each flatbread for about 1 minute per side, until puffed and lightly browned in spots.
5) Add garlic and butter
- While still hot, brush generously with butter.
- Rub with sliced garlic for a bold flavor, or finely chop the garlic and sprinkle it over the warm bread.
Serving Tips
- Serve immediately. These garlic butter flatbreads tend to firm up as they cool, so they’re at their best fresh from the pan.
