Making bread from scratch doesn’t have to be complicated. This 3-ingredient flatbread is proof that the simplest recipes often make the best results — and it’s a wonderful way to get kids involved in the kitchen.
No yeast, no kneading, no waiting for dough to rise. Just mix, shape, and cook.
What You Need
- 1 cup (200g) strained Greek yogurt
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- A pinch of salt (optional)
That’s it. Three ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.
How to Make It
Step 1 — Mix the dough
Combine the yogurt, flour, and baking soda in a mixing bowl. Stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough feels sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.

Step 2 — Divide and shape
Lightly flour your hands and the surface. Turn the dough out and divide it into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into thin discs, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 3 — Cook on the pan
Heat a dry skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Place one flatbread on the hot pan and cook until bubbles appear on the surface, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, another 1–2 minutes.
Step 4 — Serve warm
Stack the cooked flatbreads on a plate and cover with a clean towel to keep them soft. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Tips for the Best Results
- Don’t skip the baking soda — it helps the bread rise slightly and creates that light, fluffy texture.
- Work quickly — the dough is forgiving, but cooking on high heat gives you that golden crust.
- Keep them warm — flatbreads stiffen as they cool. Serve immediately for the softest texture.
- Let kids help — shaping the dough is a great sensory activity for little hands.
What to Serve With
This flatbread is incredibly versatile. Serve it:
- Plain as a side for soups and stews
- With butter and honey for a sweet snack
- Loaded with hummus and veggies for a light lunch
- As a wrap for sandwiches and wraps
Fresh from the pan — soft, warm, and perfect
