Yeast flatbreads

Cookinero 24 Mar 2025

Yeast flatbreads are a light snack or appetizer for hot dishes. To cook them in a frying pan or in the oven, use high-fat milk, fermented baked milk, kefir, sour cream or water and, of course, flour. This is a great alternative to bread, or they can be served with jam or honey as a dessert. For a fluffy flatbread, the dough should be smooth and elastic, not tight or soft. Temperature is also important. The dough rises well in a dry and warm place. Cooking yeast flatbreads according to the recipe is quick and easy.

How to cook Yeast flatbreads

Step 1

Yeast flatbreads

Start kneading the dough. Mix milk, sugar and yeast in a bowl and leave for 10 minutes. Beat the egg with a fork or whisk and add to the milk mixture, add salt. Gradually add flour, knead a soft dough that does not stick to your hands. Then roll the dough into a ball, place it in a bowl and let it rise for 50-60 minutes, covering it with a damp towel. Leave it in a warm, dry place without drafts, the dough should double in volume.

Step 2

Yeast flatbreads

Form a flat cake. Knead the dough and divide it into four equal parts. Roll each part into a round layer, not thin. Place some of the filling in the center. Lift all the edges up and connect them well "in a bag". Carefully roll into a flat cake of the desired diameter. Leave for 5-7 minutes so that the dough rises a little.

Step 3
