💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Use a 1:1 ratio by weight of self-raising flour to Greek yogurt (typically 150g each) because this creates the optimal protein-to-carb balance while maintaining proper gluten development for flatbread structure.ingredient1:1 weight ratio
- ✓Roll the dough to exactly 1/4 inch thickness using guide sticks or a pasta machine setting #4, as thinner breads become crispy rather than chewy and thicker ones won't cook through in the short timeframe.technique1/4 inch thickness
- ✓Heat your pan to 400-450°F (medium-high) before adding the flatbread because Greek yogurt dough needs immediate heat shock to create steam for lift without burning the exterior.timing400-450°F
- ✓Add baking powder at 1/2 teaspoon per cup of flour even though using self-raising flour because Greek yogurt's acidity neutralizes some leavening agents, requiring the boost for proper rise.ingredient1/2 tsp per cup
- ✓Cook for exactly 90-120 seconds per side until internal temperature reaches 200°F because Greek yogurt proteins coagulate at this temperature, creating the characteristic dense yet tender texture.timing90-120 seconds, 200°F internal
