Yoghurt flatbread

Makes 4

Ingredients:

200g Flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

200g of Greek yoghurt or 150ml warm water (vegan option)

Step by step recipe

1. Mix all the ingredients in your food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a ball. If you don’t have a food processor, this can easily be done in a bowl using a fork to begin with, followed by your hands.

2. Put the dough into a bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Let it rise a little for 10–15 minutes. It won’t rise like normal dough, just puff up a little.

3. Dust a clean surface with flour. Divide the dough into four equal pieces and flatten them using a rolling pin. They should each be 2–3mm thick.

4. Warm up a frying pan and cook each flatbread for 1–2 minutes on each side, until nicely puffed up.
