Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup warm water 110° F
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 pinch baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons canola or olive oil
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons plain Greek-style yogurt
  • 1/4 cup extra flour for rolling
  • 2 tablespoons clarified butter

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, add water and sprinkle yeast over the top. Allow to sit for 10 minutes until frothy.
  2. While the yeast is sitting, mix together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in a large bowl. Add in oil and yogurt and mix until crumbly.
  3. Stir the water and yeast and then add to the flour mixture, mixing until a ball of dough forms. Knead with floured hands until the dough is smooth. Place the dough back in the bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place for 3 to 4 hours.
  4. Once the dough has risen, preheat oven to 500° F with a baking stone in the oven.
  5. Flip onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a few minutes until easy to handle. Break into 4-5 equal-sized balls. Dip each ball into a small amount of flour.
  6. Roll into an oval shape approximately 1/4″ thick.
  7. Once the oven and stone are preheated, dip hands in water and wet each piece of dough slightly before placing it on the stone. Bake at 500° F for 4-5 minutes until top is golden brown and bubbly. Remove from the stone and brush with clarified butter. Serve.
