Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. These dry ingredients form the base of the flatbread dough and should be mixed well.
Step 2: Add the Yogurt
Add the yogurt to the dry mixture and stir until you form a soft dough. The yogurt adds a lovely tenderness to the bread. Adjust the consistency if needed by adding a bit more flour or yogurt—the dough should not be too sticky or too dry.
Step 3: Knead the Dough
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5–7 minutes. This step helps develop the gluten, resulting in soft and chewy flatbread. Once kneaded, cover the dough with a clean cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Step 4: Prepare the Garlic Butter
While the dough is resting, melt the butter in a small pan over low heat. Add the crushed garlic cloves and let them infuse for a few minutes without burning. Let the garlic butter cool slightly.
Step 5: Shape the Flatbreads
Once the dough has rested, divide it into small portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into thin, round flatbreads. Try to keep the thickness even so they cook uniformly.
Step 6: Cook the Flatbreads
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place a flatbread on the hot surface and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to avoid burning.
Step 7: Brush with Garlic Butter
While still hot, brush each flatbread with the garlic butter. This step adds rich flavor and a beautiful sheen, making the bread irresistible.
