Ingredients
For the Dough
Three cups of all-purpose flour
One teaspoon of salt
One teaspoon of sugar
One teaspoon of baking powder
One cup of warm milk
Two tablespoons of yogurt
Two tablespoons of melted butter
One tablespoon of vegetable oil
For Cooking and Brushing
Two tablespoons of butter, melted
One tablespoon of oil
Instructions
Step One: Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder.
Add the warm milk, yogurt, melted butter, and vegetable oil. Mix well until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about ten minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for at least thirty minutes to allow the gluten to develop.
Step Two: Shape the Flatbreads
Divide the dough into equal portions, about six to eight balls, depending on the desired size.
Roll out each ball into a thin, round disc about one-fourth inch thick.
Brush each disc lightly with melted butter before cooking.
Step Three: Cook the Flatbreads
Heat a non-stick skillet or a cast-iron pan over medium heat.
Place a flatbread in the pan and cook for about one to two minutes until bubbles form and the bottom turns golden brown.
Flip the flatbread and cook for another minute on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining dough, brushing each flatbread with butter as soon as it comes off the pan.
Step Four: Serve and Enjoy
Stack the warm flatbreads on a plate and cover them with a clean towel to keep them soft.
Serve them warm with honey, jam, cheese, or your favorite savory dishes.
Enjoy the soft and flaky layers of this delicious butter flatbread!
Tips for the Best Flatbread
Use warm milk to keep the dough soft and pliable.
Let the dough rest for at least thirty minutes to improve texture and elasticity.
For extra flavor, add herbs or garlic to the butter before brushing.
Store leftover flatbreads in an airtight container and reheat them in a pan or microwave before serving.
