Craving a delectable homemade bread but short on time? Look no further than these easy and quick Yogurt Flatbreads, where the magic of yogurt and cheese come together to create a mouthwatering treat. In just a few simple steps, you’ll create a batch of delectable flatbreads that are perfect as a side dish or as an appetizer.
The secret to the simplicity of these flatbreads lies in the absence of yeast, eliminating the need for lengthy proofing and rising times. Instead, we rely on the combination of yogurt and cheese to create a fluffy and flavorful base. The yogurt adds a delightful tanginess while keeping the dough moist, and the cheese bring a rich and savory note that will leave you wanting more.
How to make yogurt flatbreads
To whip up these tasty flatbreads, begin by combining flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Then, incorporate Greek yogurt and grated cheese, whether it be cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite cheese variety. Mix until a soft, pliable dough forms.
Once the dough is ready, divide it into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Preheat a pan over medium-high heat, ensuring it reaches the desired temperature. No oil or butter is necessary; the hot pan will work its magic on the flatbreads.
On a floured surface, roll each ball of dough into a circle approximately ¼ inch (6mm) thick. Place the flattened dough onto the hot pan and let it cook for about a minute.
As the flatbreads cook, enjoy the enticing aroma that fills your kitchen. The heat causes the dough to puff up and develop golden brown spots. The cheese melts and melds with the other ingredients, infusing each bite with a delightful cheesiness.
Carefully flip the flatbread and continue cooking until the bottom achieves a golden brown color, with an uneven distribution of spots adding to its rustic appeal. Repeat this process with the remaining pieces of dough until all the flatbreads are cooked to perfection.
Prepare the butter parsley mixture
To elevate the flavor profile, prepare a delightful butter parsley mixture. Melt butter in a small saucepan and add minced garlic, fresh parsley, and a pinch of salt. Let the mixture cook for a minute, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Once cooked, brush each flatbread generously with the aromatic butter parsley mixture. The combination of the warm, cheesy flatbreads with the flavorful butter infusion is heavenly.

These look delicious, but also like something that is best straight from the pan. How much ahead of serving can you make them? Do you have any suggestions for how best to hold them, or refresh them prior to serving?
You can make them several hours before, and simply reheat them in skillet for a few seconds on each side.
Delicious!!! And easy to prepare. Thank you for sharing.
Can I keep the leftover uncooked dough in the fridge to use another day?
Yes.. You can make it a day in advance, refrigerate and cook later.
Disaster of a recipe. Followed the measurements in grams and it just gives one sticky mess. Noticed that in the cups measurement there is more flour than yoghurt but in grams version there is more yoghurt than flour….. increased the flour but was long and tedious and ended up with very litle left what with everything that had stuck to the hands….
I actually do this recipe very often for my girls and it always work wonderfully. Sorry you had issues with the recipe. First, make sure you use Greek yogurt, at least 2% fat. You have to understand that flour and yogurt weights differently when using cups measurement. 1 cup of flour weights 125g while the same cup of yogurt weights 240g. The dough consistency is also influenced by the flour you use. Try to use all purpose flour, type 550 with about 10-11% protein content and don’t use cake flour type 000. If it happens to use cake flour try to add more flour until it reaches the desired consistency. It is easy to adjust the recipe with the ingredients you have around. Sometimes I even make it with buttermilk or plain yogurt if I don’t have Greek yogurt around, and simply add a bit more flour to it. Hope this helps. Best, Ella.
