    3 ingredient flatbreads

    Flatbreads. They are literally my lifesaver. And these super easy 3 ingredient flatbreads probably use stuff you already have in the fridge and pantry!

    They will mean you can always have a yummy side ready for your next curry or dip and that you never run out of yummy stuff for the kids lunchboxes.

    If you've always thought making bread was too hard, you will love these, no rising, easy mixing and only 3 ingredients! But they also don't go hard and have an awesome flavour.

    super easy 3 ingredient flatbreads

    Actually, once you have read this recipe, there's no excuse for not making your own flatbreads! The rolling can be done by the kids and the ingredients are things you probably already have.

    We eat them with mango chicken or other curries, I chop them up to pop in lunchboxes and they are a staple, so I thought it was about time I blogged them.

    As an aside, I want to talk about Olive Oil. A lot of people think that your olive oil has to come from Italy, Spain or Greece to be any good.

    But by thinking that, we are stopping ourselves from having some of the best olive oil we can find- Aussie olive oil!

    It's so good that it's all I buy, for many reasons, less food miles, much fresher, better taste, and supporting Aussie farmers.

    Sorry, that's just me- bee in a bonnet about olive oil on a Monday!

    Self-raising flour is just plain flour with baking powder added into it, so if you don't have any, it's two teaspoons per cup of plain flour.

    You can also make these healthier with wholemeal instead of plain white flour, but it also makes them much denser, so they won't have the light fluffy texture these ones have.

    If you want them to be similar to store-bought naan bread, brush with melted butter and garlic before serving.

    After making store in an airtight container in the fridge or freeze on a tray and transfer to a container when solid.

    Defrost overnight in the fridge or just put them on the bench while you prepare the rest of lunch and they will be ready to use.

    If you're looking for recipes with three ingredients only, then I have good suggestions that you can try:

    • Super simple 3 ingredient scones
    • 3 ingredient festive yoghurt bark
    • Spinach yoghurt dough, 3 ingredients

    3 ingredient flatbreads, so easy to make, freezer friendly and kid friendly! No rising, no waiting, no baking just quick and simple!

      I followed the recipe exactly and used regular (not fat-free or Greek) yogurt and I used my electric stand up mixer. They turned out perfect, just amazing. The dough was very soft and easy to work with. I floured my work surface a tiny bit so that I could roll them out. This is a winner, which I'll be making often. Thank you so much for sharing.

      I made these tonight. They are delicious! But the dough is so sticky...it's impossible to roll into balls. And it was so hard to mix. I followed the measurements exactly with the listed ingredients. Also...my dough did not bubble while cooking. I can't imagine what I did wrong. Anyone else have the same problem? What was your solution? More flour?

        I think the main problem is there are a lot of differences between youghurts. If your yoghurt is runnier, then it will need more flour. I use a thick greek yoghurt for them and have never had this problem. If they are bubbling whilst cooking, then maybe up your pan heat? It is the hot air trapped between the layers that forces them to puff and bubble.

      I've just made these again ... they're always popular. This time I added a pinch of salt and the ground seeds of five cardamon pods and was surprised how much in enhanced the flavour.

        You can but personally, the dough is so easy to make that they are better frozen when they have been completed. The easiest step is making the dough.

          It's completely dry. There is oil in the flatbreads.

            Self-raising flour contains baking powder to help it rise! So as long as your flour contains baking powder or you add it, it will be fine.

          You can use either, if your greek yoghurt isn't moist enough, add a dash of water.

      Why were mine a complete disaster? I halved the recipe and went off the gram amounts, not the cups but they were so sticky they were unworkable. I ended up adding at least an extra cup of flour and losing most of the mixture to my hands. I couldn’t make them into rounds as they just kept falling apart and if I tried to do it on a surface they would just stick. I can’t see how I went wrong if it’s been so easy and worked for everyone else?

        Hi Bonnie,

        I make these at least once a month and have never had this problem. But you did halve the recipe, and I've never attempted that, in fact, it took me a long time to come up with the exact right amount of each ingredient, so I wouldn't halve it!

          Are you sure the converter said the right amounts? I made the full recipe using the gram amounts, but had to add tons more flour to make the dough workable.

      Great recipe! Super easy and simple. I jazzed mine up as mini garlic pizzas and cooking it with a generous dollop of butter for flavour. We will serve these up as mini bruchettas for our little toddlers lunch tomorrow!

        not at this stage. There are loads of other flatbread recipes that are gluten free, this one isn't by default. I know this would pretty much taste foul with supermarket gluten free flour. Sorry! If you experiment and make it great gluten free, I'd love to see how!
