Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup water lukewarm
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3/4 cups yogurt
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped
  • olive oil for brushing
  • fresh chopped parsley

Instructions

  • Start by adding your warm water (105-110 degrees F) in a bowl. Add in your tablespoon of granulated sugar an yeast. Whisk until dissolved and set aside. Let it foam up for 5-10 minutes.
  • Now in a stand mixer whisk together the yeast mixture, add in the yogurt, olive oil, basil, salt, oregano, and garlic powder.
  • Now add in the flour and parsley. Mix until combined. Use the dough hook to knead the dough for around 5-8 minutes. If you don't own a stan mixer knead by hand.
  • Place your circle ball of dough and place in a greased boil and let it sit for 15 minutes covered with a towel or plastic wrap.
  • Once done take the dough ball out on a floured surface. Cut the dough into 10 balls.
  • Roll out the balls to around 6 inch circles. Brush the top lightly with olive oil.
  • Now heat a pan over medium-high heat. Then place greased side down on the pan and allow the flatbread to become golden brown.
  • Brush the top sides oil, and then flip over and brown that side as well. It normally takes just a few minutes.
  • Remove the flatbread and brush with oil again and top with fresh parsley if you want. Allow the flatbread to cool a bit then serve.

Notes

This is an herb flatbread, but you can easily change up the spices used.
You need to allow the yeast to activate and bloom or your running the risk of the texture being off.
You can grill flatbread if you want instead of cooking on a pan on the stove.
Make your flatbread into pizza, serve as a gyro, pair with hummus, and more.
