Ingredients
1 cup whole wheat flour, plus 1 tablespoon for dusting the cutting board1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder1/4 teaspoon salt2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 3/4 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
Directions
Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and parsley in a medium mixing bowl. Add 1/4 cup yogurt at a time, mixing until the dough is smooth.

Wrap the dough in plastic and let rest for 30 minutes to an hour.

Divide the dough into six equal portions.

Heat a large nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium-high heat.

Using a rolling pin, flatten each dough ball until it's about 6 inches in diameter. (Dust the dough and your work surface with flour as needed.)

Transfer the dough to the griddle one piece at a time, then cook for one to two minutes per side, flipping to the second side when you start to see the dough rise. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.

Serve immediately or let cool, wrap in two layers of plastic and freeze for up to three months.

Makes 6 flatbreads.

     Thank you!! I love flatbread because it's so versatile, but I don't love the cost. Hence I have been experimenting with homemade flatbread, with varied results; this is by far the very best I've made! I can't wait to make hummus pizza on it! - 8/14/12

     I used honey yogurt with 1/2 tbsp of cinnamon...very delicious! - 7/23/12

     Excellent! I added 2 Tbs of flax seeds, and 4 tbs minced onion. Will be making this often, has even less calories than thin buns. Would alsp make a good crust for a personal pizza! - 8/31/12

     Since I like onion bread, I will saute up some thinly sliced onions and add that to the mix. The honey-yogurt-cinnamon combo sounds like it will make a terrific sweet bread. Now... what about peanut butter? sun-dried tomato? tahini? currants? dried fruit? slivered almonds? olives? I'm SO inspired! - 8/30/12

     I made the recipe exactly as written and enjoyed it as the base of a mini pizza! Very easy and I like the fact that I can freeze the extras! - 9/19/12

     So easy! So good. I used the tomato-basil-parsley spread on top and it was great! - 8/22/12

     I love to make this!! it freezes great! I made my third double batch today and just realized I should be letting the dough rest before cooking. I love it even more! It handles much better and has a chewier texture that I prefer. I will try toasting it and eating with cottage cheese for lunch. - 10/10/12

     What could I use as a substitute for the Greek yogurt? - 7/11/13

    Regular non-fat yogurt or reduced fat sour cream can be used as subs.

     OMG! This looks like an excellent substitute for Naan. I can't eat Indian without it, but the TJ's brand I buy is 220cals apiece. Chef, you've done it again :) :) - 9/7/12

     We make this without adding baking soda, yogurt or parsley. Just whole wheat flour, salt, water. This is a very common Indian flat bread called "Roti" and we eat it with vegetables/curries and/or lentils. One can add the yogurt and parsley to add flavors but I would avoid using baking soda. - 5/6/13

     Really liked this flatbread and use the honey yogurt and cinnamon suggestion as well. - 7/27/12

     I am never, ever buying pita bread or flat bread again. And I'll use this for personal sized pizzas, too. Super easy to make. The picture is a bit deceiving and looks like it was made with white flour. I used wheat flour and they LOOK wheat, not white. - 10/21/12
  • JULIJULINN
     I made the recipe exactly as written...so why is my bread colored brown because of the whole wheat and yet pictured white in the photo? Also....the taste was not at all appealing. - 9/10/12
  • NIUNIA50
     Great recipe! Did not have a baking soda, and used yeast instead same 1.5 tsp. - 9/16/12
  • CD12957034
     Absolutely loved this! Grocery store was out of flour tortillas so I whipped this up in no time as an alternative. Very easy and even my one picky kid declared he liked it. No better compliment! Substituted cilantro for the parsley, delish! - 9/8/12
  • BIRDER1947
     I followed the recipe exactly as written but my flatbreads had a bitter taste. What did I do wrong? - 6/10/15
  • LOLAJEAN
     question.... I have arthritis in my hands and I was wondering if this could possibly be made in an automatic bread machine? Just the mixing .... not the baking. Would love to hear if anyone tried that and how well it worked. The recipe sounds wonderful and I would love to try it!

    Sure that would work well or you could even knead it in a food processor with just a couple of pulses.

     Terrific! I used rosemary and garlic instead of parsley, and made them on a hot grill. They were wonderful, even the kids liked them. - 3/29/13
  • 2B4AHEALTHYLIFE
     I love it! I baked them and fried, I preferred the baked version. Thank you, I'll be doing this a lot! - 11/26/12
  • ADOUGLASMHOR
     I used Coriander leaves (Cilantro) instead of parsley and Alpro soya yoghurt instead of Greek yoghurt to make a vegan flatbread to serve with Dahl - success! Thank you. - 10/10/12

     Mine didn't turn out nearly as pretty as the picture, but they sure they tasted good. I made some of the ones exactly like the recipe called for and another batch with honey and cinnamon. - 9/9/12
  • BRENDAROGERS
     We make these at cooking classes, but they use whole wheat flour and water and thats it. Then they fry it. I like the yogurt with cinnamon. Sound delicious. thanks - 8/30/12
  • KYM1954
     Haven't tried, but we too are off dairy and vegetarian. I am going to try replacing the yogurt with creamed avacado or maybe hummus. Will update how it came out. - 8/30/12
