Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup warm water
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup plain yogurt
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast by combining warm water, instant yeast, and sugar in a mixing bowl. Let sit for five minutes until bubbly.
  2. Stir in olive oil, yogurt, egg, salt, and gradually add flour until you achieve a soft dough.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth. Place it in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a towel to rise for about an hour until doubled in size.
  4. Preheat your skillet over medium heat. Divide the risen dough into eight equal pieces and roll each into a six-inch circle.
  5. Cook each piece in the skillet for 2-3 minutes until bubbly and golden brown; flip to cook the other side.
  6. Brush with melted butter mixed with garlic after cooking for added flavor.
