Garlic Flatbread

Here’s a simple and delicious Garlic Flatbread recipe that you can make with or without yeast.

Garlic Flatbread (No Yeast Option)

Ingredients (Makes 6-8 pieces)

• 2 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1 tsp salt

• ¾ cup plain yogurt (or Greek yogurt)

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 2–3 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated

• 2 tbsp butter or ghee

• Fresh parsley or cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Make the Dough
   In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add yogurt and 1 tbsp olive oil. Mix until it forms a rough dough. Knead on a floured surface for 5–7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 20–30 minutes.

2. Prep the Garlic Butter
   While dough is resting, melt the butter or ghee in a pan. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds on low heat (don’t brown it). Set aside.

3. Roll the Flatbreads
   Divide dough into 6–8 equal balls. Roll each out into a 6–8 inch oval or circle.

4. Cook the Flatbread
   Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly oil it. Cook each flatbread for about 1–2 minutes per side until puffed and golden spots appear.

5. Brush with Garlic Butter
   Immediately brush hot flatbreads with garlic butter and sprinkle with chopped herbs, if using.

Tips:

• You can add a bit of grated cheese inside the dough before rolling for cheesy garlic flatbread.

• For a yeast version, replace baking powder with 1 tsp yeast and let the dough rise for 1 hour before using.
