🔪 How To Make Flatbread With No Yeast

When it comes to making bread, it doesn't get much simpler than this!

You'll need a saucepan, a mixing bowl, a non-stick skillet, a silicone spatula, and plastic wrap to get started.

This recipe makes 6 flatbreads. Double the recipe if you want leftovers for lunch the next day.

1. Melt butter. Add the ¾ cup of milk and 3 ½ tablespoons of butter to a saucepan(or microwave-safe bowl)and heat just until the butter melts.
2. Combine. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the milk with the butter, the 2 cups of all-purpose flour, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
3. Knead. Dust a flat work surface with flour and knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth.
4. Let it rest. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
5. Roll it out. Dust your work surface with flour again and unwrap the dough. Slice it into 6 even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then roll each ball out into an 8-inch round about 3mm thick.
6. Cook. Heat a non-stick skillet over high heat. Once hot, place one round of dough in the pan and cook for 1-1 ½ minutes(the flatbread will puff up).
7. Flip it. Check the underside. If it is nicely golden, flip it and cook the other side for 45 seconds to 1 minute until it is equally golden(the flatbread will puff up again).
8. Serve. Transfer the cooked flatbread to a plate and cover it with a kitchen towel to keep it warm as you repeat the process with the remaining rounds of dough. Serve as soon as they are ready.

💭 Tips & Notes

• Getting your dough to a good consistency shouldn't take much kneading. Once it's free of lumps, it is ready to go!
• If your dough seems too sticky, add a little more flour.
• You can brush the flatbreads with melted butter or spritz them with olive oil for added flavor.
• If you need a version that is dairy-free, swap the milk for almond milk. To make your flatbreads vegan-friendly, use almond milk and swap the butter for olive oil.

🥡 Storing

The dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. I like to slice it into rounds and wrap each round in plastic wrap so they are ready to grab and go!

The baked flatbread can be kept in a sealed Ziploc bag at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days.

Freezing Flatbreads

Let the flatbreads cool completely, then wrap them in plastic wrap or foil and place them in a heavy-duty freezer bag. If needed, you can put parchment paper between them to keep them from sticking. Freeze for up to 3 months and place them on the counter to thaw.
