Learn how to make 2-ingredient bread, and you won’t have to buy flatbread at the store again! Made with no yeast, it’s fluffy, pliable, and so versatile!
Everyone needs a quick, easy, foolproof bread recipe that pairs with all sorts of dishes. My healthy flatbread ticks those boxes, and it’s become a weekly staple in our house!
With two (literally, two) ingredients, the bread is light and soft, perfect for dipping or scooping. If the base sounds familiar, it’s my Greek yogurt dough, which works so well for flatbread.

Why I love this recipe
- It’s so darn easy. Just mix the ingredients into a dough, roll out the flatbreads, and cook them on the stove. It doesn’t get easier than this.
- Versatile. From pizzas to wraps and quesadillas, you can use this bread for every meal of the day. I’ll be sure to give you plenty of ideas later on.
- No yeast needed. That also means you don’t have to activate the yeast, wait for the dough to rise, or knead it constantly!

★★★★★ REVIEW
“This was very easy and tastes great. My family loved them as sandwich wraps in their lunchboxes, or a quick vehicle for Mexican fillings.” – Rosie
Key Ingredients
- Self-rising flour. AKA all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt already added. If you don’t have any on hand, you can make your own with my simple homemade self-rising flour.
- Greek yogurt. The lower the fat content of your Greek yogurt, the better it will mix with the flour. Non-fat Greek yogurt worked the best for me, but reduced-fat and full-fat also worked. You can even use sour cream. I tried this recipe with natural plain yogurt, and unfortunately, the dough was WAY too sticky and never developed the proper texture.
How to make 2-ingredient bread
This is an overview with step-by-step photos. Full ingredients & instructions are in the recipe card below.
Step 1- Combine the flour and yogurt with a wooden spoon in a large bowl and mix well.
Step 2- Press the dough into a circular shape. Divide it into 8 portions.
Step 3- Roll out the dough balls into a circular shape using a rolling pin.
Step 4- Cook the flatbread in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining flatbread.
Arman’s recipe tips
- Know when to flip. Once you see little bubbles forming on the dough’s surface, that’s when it’s time to flip.
- Roll out the dough until 1/8 of an inch. This flatbread puffs up as it cooks, so don’t worry if it’s super thin.
- Adjust the dough. If the dough is too thick, add more yogurt. If the dough is too thin, add more flour.
- Make it dairy-free. Fermented coconut yogurt makes a great dairy-free substitution.
- Use whole wheat flour. Plan on adding a little extra yogurt.
- Add flavor. Brush a little olive oil or butter on the flatbread, and if you really want to take it up a notch, sprinkle on some minced garlic.
Storage instructions
To store: If you plan on eating your flatbread within 5 days, it can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container. If you want to keep it fresher for longer, refrigerate it for up to 2 weeks.
To freeze: Place leftover flatbreads in a ziplock bag and freeze them for up to 6 months.

- 1 cup Greek yogurt vegan Greek yogurt, non-fat, full-fat or reduced-fat
- 1/2 teaspoon salt optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine your self-rising flour with Greek yogurt and mix well, until combined. Use your hands to incorporate the flour and yogurt and form a ball of dough.
- Lightly flour a wooden or kitchen surface. Sprinkle a tablespoon or two of flour on top of the ball of dough. Transfer the dough onto the floured surface, and press into a circular shape. Divide the dough into 8 even portions.
- Re-flour the surface again, and get one portion of dough. Use a rolling pin and roll it out into a circular shape. Repeat the process until you have 8 uncooked flatbreads.
- Heat a large, non-stick pan on medium heat. When hot, place one flatbread on the heated surface and cook for 2-3 minutes, before flipping and cooking for another two minutes. Repeat the process until all the flatbreads are cooked.
Notes
- Flatbread wrap. Filled with your favorite fillings, like gyro meat or cauliflower hummus.
- Flatbread pizza. Replace traditional pizza crust and top it with sauce and your favorite pizza toppings. Grill in the oven until it’s warm and the cheese has melted.
- Flatbread quesadillas. Fill half a flatbread with cheese, avocado, and beans, and fold in half. Heat on a non-stick pan until golden brown, flip, and cook for another minute.
- Flatbread PB&J. The classic in flatbread form! Spread generously with peanut butter and jelly!
- Breakfast wraps. Fill your wrap with scrambled eggs, cheese, and barbecue sauce, and grill on a skillet or non-stick pan.
- Dipping in your favorite soups and stews, like pumpkin curry soup or cream of asparagus soup.

The Chocolate Chips Cookies and the Strawberry Yogurt Pops were Super Delicious too 😋! Next I’ll be making the cheese biscuits! Eating healthy couldn’t be more Fun and Enjoyable! Many Blessings to you and Thank you for the Cookbook!
Wow. Just wow. These are amazing! Honestly, I didn’t think they’d be this good when I looked at the ingredients list (sorry!), but they were delicious. I brushed some melted butter, garlic and herbs on them once cooked. I’ve been asked to make them again by my partner (who is incredibly fussy!). Thanks again.
This reminds me of Indian food!
Quick, easy, delicious!! Thank you!!
Thank you. Do you have any recipes for Diabetics.
Kind regards

Love the flatbread
I had to make some adjustments because I’m gluten intolerant. I used a gluten free rice flour since rice flour and did use link to make it self rising. I chose rice flour because it’s lighter than other gluten free flours. I used fage 0% milk fat Greek yogurt and added 1 egg for richness and they were perfect. I have found so many ways to use these and added different spices for different dishes and they always come out perfect. This is such a great base recipe to play with and it works great with gluten free flour.
Thanks, Rachel!
This flat bread recipe was very easy and the taste was amazing.
Can you use a different flour than white flour ?
Great recipe and easy to adapt.
Didn’t have SR flour so added teaspoon of baking powder to my plain flour, also used 4.5% yogurt and although was sticky it still made perfect flat breads to go with my vegetarian curry.
Very easy and taste great
Love your recipes. So innovative. Thanks for everything. Love to cook and but as an 83 year old diabetic I have to be careful. My husband enjoys your food and I want him to enjoy them too.
