✔ In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast.
✔ Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
✅ This ensures the yeast is active and makes the bread rise perfectly!
2️⃣ Prepare the Dough
✔ In a large bowl, combine flour and salt.
✔ Add yogurt, olive oil, and the yeast mixture.
✔ Mix until a soft dough forms.
✅ If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if too dry, add a splash of water!
3️⃣ Knead & Rest the Dough
✔ Knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
✔ Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour (until doubled in size).
✅ A warm place helps the dough rise faster!
4️⃣ Shape the Flatbreads
✔ Punch down the dough and divide it into 6-8 equal balls.
✔ Roll each ball into a ½-inch thick circle.
✅ Don’t roll too thin—thicker bread stays soft inside!
5️⃣ Cook the Turkish Bread
✔ Heat a dry pan or griddle over medium heat.
✔ Cook each bread for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and puffed.
✔ Brush with butter or olive oil while warm.
✅ Press lightly with a spatula while cooking to help it puff up!
6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!
✔ Serve warm with honey, butter, hummus, or cheese.
✔ Use as a wrap, sandwich bread, or side for soups.
✅ Best served fresh but can be reheated easily!
