Ingredients
I absolutely love how simple no yeast flatbread is to make. You only need 5 ingredients, the rest are just for extra flavor! I like to add dried seasonings to my dough, but if you don’t want to then you don’t have to. You can find the measurements below in the recipe card.
Olive Oil: This is for bringing the dough together and for cooking the flatbread. Warm Water: The temperature of the water helps the flour come together in this dough. All-Purpose Flour: It’s easy to work with and you already have some in your pantry! Baking Powder: This is to help it puff up just the right amount on the stovetop. Salt: This goes in the dough to help bring out all the yummy flavors. Garlic Powder: I like to just garlic powder in flatbread, it reminds me of garlic naan which I love! Oregano: This dried herb is so subtle yet full of delicious flavor. Basil: I love to add a little dried basil to the dough. You can also add fresh basil over the top once it’s finished cooking! Fresh Parsley: This is for extra flavor and color on the top. Kosher Salt: For garnish.
Flatbread Recipe with No Yeast
This flatbread recipe is so straightforward, I have my kids help me with it! It’s a really simple dough that doesn’t require any kneading. You don’t have to worry about the dough rising or anything, because there is no yeast and the dough is cooked over a skillet until golden brown.
Whole Wheat Flour: A lot of people want to know if you can make this recipe with whole wheat flour. You definitely can! Wheat flour usually sucks up more water than all purpose, so you may need to add more water to the dough. Added Ingredients: You can add more to this recipe to spice things up! You can add sesame seeds, fresh herbs, cheese, or even crushed nuts! There are no limits to how to flavor this bread. There is even more you can add on top! How to Eat Flatbread: This is an American flatbread recipe, and you can add whatever your heart desires on top! Make it into a sandwich, gyro, flatbread pizza, the list goes on. It’s also great dipped in hummus or smeared in butter or guacamole. You can eat it like naan and put curry and rice on top of it. It goes great with a bowl of soup. Like I said, it’s great with almost everything!
