Make a 2-ingredient high-protein flatbread dough with self-raising flour and Greek yogurt

Mix equal weights of self-raising flour and 0% Greek yogurt, knead briefly into a dough, then roll out for quick pan-cooked flatbreads.

Combine 50 g self-raising flour with 50 g 0% Greek yogurt, then knead until it comes together as a workable dough. Roll the dough into a circle and cook in a pan for about 2 minutes per side.

The short version

  • Use equal weights flour and Greek yogurt for a fast dough.
  • Pan-cook roughly 2 minutes per side for a quick bread alternative.

    Knead into a dough until it holds together.

    Knead just until smooth enough to roll; avoid overworking.

What goes wrong

Rolling unevenly so parts burn while others stay doughy

Roll to an even thickness before cooking.

Over-kneading and making the flatbread tougher

Knead only until the dough comes together and is rollable.

Why it works

/self-raising flour provides leavening so the flatbread can puff slightly without yeast, while thick Greek yogurt adds moisture and protein and helps bind the dough.
