Key Ingredients:
Flour: The base of the flatbread, creating a structure and elasticity. AP flour gives a soft, fluffy result.
Yogurt: Helps to maintain moisture and provides tang, which contributes to a tender crumb. Plain, unsweetened yogurt is ideal for this.
Baking Powder: A leavening agent that helps the flatbreads puff up a little and stay soft.
Salt brings out the flavor of the bread and counteracts the tang from the yogurt and the richness from the oils.
Vegetable oil allows the dough to remain soft and flexible, providing a slight richness to the bread.
Brushing avocado oil on both the skillet and the dough ensures that nothing sticks and a crispy golden-brown crust forms.

Reheat: In a skillet over low heat, or in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds, to soften the flatbreads.
Freeze: Allow the flatbreads to cool completely, then stack them with sheets of parchment paper between each piece. For freezer storage, place in a freezer-safe bag and keep for up to 2 months. Reheat after thawing at room temperature.

Variations to Try:
Try this: Use part whole wheat flour instead of some of the all-purpose flour to make your flatbreads a little heartier — it gives a wonderful nutty flavor and more fiber. You can also add in dried herbs like rosemary, thyme or oregano for extra flavor. For a savory option, stir grated Parmesan or cheddar right into the dough and barbecue it to make cheese-oozing flatbreads.
Garlic Butter Finish: Brush the cooked flatbreads with melted butter infused with garlic for a fragrant, decadent treat.
Stuffed Flatbreads: You take balls of dough, stuff them with whatever you want partying on the inside — mashed potatoes, some spiced ground meat or cheese — you seal them up and cook them until they’re golden and good.
