👩🍳 Instructions
1. Make the Dough
In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Add warm water, yogurt, and olive oil. Mix until a soft dough forms.
2. Knead the Dough
Knead for about 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic. If sticky, lightly dust with flour.
3. Let it Rise

Heat a skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
Cook each flatbread for 1–2 minutes per side until bubbles form and brown spots appear.
