Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast
  • ½ cup warm water
  • ½ cup plain yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • To a large mixing bowl, add the instant yeast, sugar, and warm water. Stir, and allow to sit for 5 minutes until the yeast starts to activate (will look a little foamy).
  • Add the yogurt, garlic powder, olive oil, and flour. Mix well to combine the dough. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, adding more flour if the dough is sticking to your hands. Cover and let rest for 1 hour in a warm place.
  • To cook, heat a cast iron skillet until hot (I did this over medium-high heat, a 6 out of 10 on my electric stove). Divide the dough into 6 even disks and roll each until they are about 1/4inch thick.
  • Place one piece of rolled dough on the hot skillet. Allow to cook for about 75 to 90 seconds, and flip. Cook the other side for about 45 to 60 seconds. The bread should be nice & crusty and have dark (but not burnt) marks.
  • Brush with melted unsalted butter, raw garlic, and top with a sprinkle of parsley. Enjoy!
