How To Make Mediterranean Flat Bread:
Start by placing flour, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Stir to combine the dry ingredients.
Add the Greek yogurt to the bowl and combine it with the dry ingredients.
SUBSTITUTION: Don’t have any Greek yogurt on hand? Use sour cream instead.
This Stainless Steel Danish Dough Hook is fabulous! It’s made of stainless steel, works beautifully to combine both wet and dry ingredients, it’s easy to clean, and will last you a lifetime! It’s perfect for all your bread baking needs.
Use your hands until you have a sticky dough that holds together. Flour your hands if you have trouble with the dough sticking to them.
Dust your work surface with flour and turn the dough out onto prepared work surface.
This little flour duster/tea infuser device makes it so easy to dust your work surface with an even layer of flour. Dusting the top of a cake with powdered sugar or cocoa is a breeze too with this handy dandy little tool. It’s one of the best kitchen gadgets I’ve purchased in a long time. It’s small enough to easily store in a drawer and gets a ton of use in my kitchen. I’m pulling this sucker out all the time!
Shape the dough into a round disk and divide it into 8 equal sized pieces.
Roll each piece of dough into a ball with your hands, then roll out each ball of dough into a thin round with a rolling pin. I typically roll them out to about 8 inches in diameter when using them for gyros. The larger size makes it easy to hold meats and veggies. Roll them out a little smaller and a tad thicker when using them primarily for scooping dips such as Hummus or Tzatziki Sauce.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
This cast iron skillet is used more than any other pan in my arsenal. It’s my favorite pan and the perfect size to cook up this flatbread. It heats up nice and evenly so you always get stellar results! It’s the best $20 I ever spent.
When the oil is hot, fry each piece of flatbread until golden brown patches appear on the bottom, and large bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Flip and cook on the second side.
Repeat until all the dough is cooked, adding more olive oil to the skillet as needed. Serve warm.
This flatbread is the perfect scooper-upper for this wholesome, easy to make hummus you can easily whip up in just minutes and enjoy anytime.

Trying to figure out what to do with some of that leftover greek yogurt? Use it to whip up a fresh batch of this delicious Tzatziki Sauce. This easy to make light, refreshingly delicious, cool, creamy cucumber sauce pairs beautifully with all your favorite Mediterranean foods. And it takes just minutes to make too.
