Dough Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
Topping Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the leavening agent and seasoning.
- Add Yogurt and Form Dough: Add the Greek yogurt to the flour mixture and stir until a dough starts to form. It will be slightly sticky but manageable.
- Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic, which helps develop the right texture.
- Divide and Shape Dough: Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each into a ball to ensure even-sized flatbreads for consistent cooking.
- Roll Flatbreads: Using a rolling pin, flatten each dough ball into a round flatbread shape, about 1/4 inch thick, suitable for air frying.
- Prepare Garlic Herb Oil: In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried oregano, and black pepper to create a fragrant and flavorful brush-on topping.
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for even cooking.
- Brush Flatbreads: Generously brush each flatbread with the garlic and herb oil mixture to infuse flavor and aid in browning.
- Air Fry Flatbreads: Place the flatbreads in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overlapping and air fry for 5-7 minutes until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the flatbreads from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly before serving to avoid burning and to let flavors settle.
Notes
- You can add a pinch of chili flakes to the garlic oil mixture for a spicy kick.
- If a softer texture is preferred, reduce air frying time slightly or lower the temperature.
- These flatbreads are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for 2 days and reheated in the air fryer.
- Substitute Greek yogurt with plain yogurt if desired, but Greek yogurt results in a thicker dough.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking.
