These Soft and Fluffy Flatbreads are a quick and easy way to make a delicious, homemade flatbread. They’re soft, warm, and perfect for pairing with curries, hummus, or as wraps for grilled meats and veggies. This recipe doesn’t require any special ingredients, and the texture is perfect: soft on the inside, slightly crispy on the outside.

Table of Contents
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for rolling)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder (helps make the flatbread puff up)
3/4 cup warm water (around 110°F/43°C)
1/4 cup plain yogurt (for a soft, slightly tangy flavor)
2 tablespoons olive oil (for softening the dough)
1 tablespoon melted butter (optional, for brushing on top)
Instructions:
Step 1: Mix the Dough
Combine dry ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Mix these dry ingredients together thoroughly.
Add the wet ingredients:
Add the warm water, yogurt, and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir with a spoon or your hands to combine. The dough will start to come together, but it might seem a little sticky at first.
Knead the dough:
Once the dough begins to come together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes. The dough should be soft, smooth, and only slightly sticky. If it’s too sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time. If it’s too dry, add a tiny bit of warm water. Knead until the dough becomes elastic and no longer sticks to your hands.
Let the dough rest:
Once the dough is kneaded, form it into a ball and place it back in the bowl. Cover with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rest for 1 hour at room temperature. This resting time will allow the dough to rise slightly and become easier to roll out.
Step 2: Roll Out the Flatbreads
Divide the dough:
After the dough has rested, punch it down to release any air bubbles. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces (or 6 if you prefer larger flatbreads).
Roll out the dough:
