GARLIC AND BUTTER FLATBREAD

Garlic Butter Flatbread Recipe

Ingredients

  • 350 g flour
  • 250 g yogurt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 30 g butter

Preparation

1. Make the Dough

  1. Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Use your hand or a spoon to form a well in the center.
  3. Add the yogurt, baking powder, sugar, and salt into the well.
  4. Stir from the center outward, gradually drawing in the flour until everything comes together into a soft dough.

2. Shape the Dough Balls

  1. Lightly knead the dough until smooth and elastic.
  2. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions.
  3. Roll each portion into a ball.
  4. Cover and let them rest for about 5 minutes.

3. Roll Out the Flatbreads

  1. On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a thin round or oval flatbread.
  2. Stack the rolled pieces, separating each one with a sheet of baking paper so they don’t stick together.

4. Cook the Flatbreads

  1. Heat a non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat (around 7–8 on a 9-level stove).
  2. Lightly oil the surface of the pan.
  3. Place one flatbread in the hot pan and cook for about 1 minute per side, or until golden spots appear and it puffs slightly.
  4. Repeat with the remaining flatbreads.

5. Add the Garlic Butter

  1. Melt the butter in a small pan or microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Peel the garlic cloves and either slice them in half or finely chop them.
  3. While each flatbread is still hot, brush it generously with melted butter.
  4. Rub with sliced garlic for a subtle flavor, or sprinkle finely chopped garlic over the top for a stronger taste.

6. Serve

  • Serve the garlic butter flatbreads immediately while they are warm and soft.
  • They will firm up as they cool, so they are best enjoyed fresh from the pan.
