Fluffy flatbread with just two ingredients

Hola! You know what? Wherever you travel in the world, you'll see someone making flatbread. That's because flatbreads are a quick, simple way to turn flour into really easy and yummy bread for the masses.

I don’t know about you, but in our house, we were spending so much money on bread that we started making sourdough. We LOVE a good piece of sourdough! Now for those who don’t know how to make sourdough, it requires having a starter (we call mothers), the right temperature in your house and time… a lot of time! When we nail it, we absolutely love it! Unfortunately, between our jobs, school, after-school activities, etc, we don’t have the time to make it anymore.

But thanks to our obsession with freshly made bread, we came across this blow-minding way of making fresh bread in less than 10 minutes, so now we can pump out a small batch while we prepare dinner. And we can end up enjoying a family dinner with a super delicious piece of home bread.

What is it? And most importantly, how hard is it to make it? Well, trust me when I tell you it is the easiest and most achievable flatbread recipe you can make at home. Don’t be scared of giving it a try! Your family will love it.

You just need an equal weight of shelf-rising flour and Greek yoghurt. Add a pinch of salt to it in a bowl and mix everything with a wooden spoon until you’ve formed a smooth-ish dough. (FYI the one in the pic is a batch of 200 grams of flour per 200 grams of yoghurt.)

Later on, divide the dough into small balls, then press them with your fingers into flat rounds, and cook them in a hot dry pan on both sides until cooked through and golden. Some people use a little bit of oil for that; others add more flour and pin roll it until very thin. Whatever you do, just play and get comfortable with the recipe.

Tips and tricks

1. In my experience, these flatbreads are best cooked over a consistent medium to high heat.

2. I have made these flatbreads in a non-stick pan, but you will always get better results when using cast iron.

3. I like to cook these in a dry pan. Later on, you can brush or drizzle them with olive oil after they’re cooked, and add some dukkah, Zaatar, etc..

4. It takes a few goes until you feel comfortable with the texture of the dough. The more you make the easiest it gets.

5. Use these flatbreads to have a shared meal like a pulled piece of meat, a fresh salad, some hummus, etc.. use your hands, rip them apart, etc!

6. Use them as a base to make mini pizzas for your kids! They will absolutely love it.

Enjoy!
