Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 cup warm water between 105-110˚F
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dried yeast 1 packet
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 cup Greek-style yogurt or plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil for mixing and brushing
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 3 ¾ cups all-purpose flour adjust as necessary
  • ½ cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley optional garnish

Equipment

  • medium-large bowl
  • sauté pan
  • Rolling Pin
  • floured counter

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium-large bowl, combine 1 cup of warm water, 2 ¼ teaspoons of active dried yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Stir gently and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Once foamy, whisk in 1 cup of Greek-style yogurt and 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Add 2 teaspoons of kosher salt, stirring until combined.
  3. Gradually add 3 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour and finely chopped flat-leaf parsley if desired, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. Knead gently for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Cover with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
  5. Preheat a sauté pan over medium-low heat to ensure even cooking.
  6. Roll each ball of dough into a 7-inch circle, dusting with flour to prevent sticking, and brush one side with olive oil.
  7. Place the oiled side into the pan and cook for 1-1.5 minutes until golden. Flip and cook for another 1-1.5 minutes.
  8. Stack the cooked flatbreads in a towel to keep warm. Serve immediately, optionally sprinkled with parsley.
