I love fresh homemade bread.And thoughI bake bread with yeast more frequently nowadays, I still find it easier and a general preference to make bread without yeast.
Maximum taste, most tasty outcome with minimum effort – but without compromising on the end result. That’s my ultimate goal and the ethos that underpins every recipe I share here on RecipeTin Eats.
Quick And Easy Flat Bread.
Over the years, I have tried a lot of flatbread recipes. Flatbreads from many different cuisines, from blogs and cooking sites, by home cooks, from reality cooking shows (yes, Master Chef and My Kitchen Rules!), serious chefs and celebrity chefs.
But I always found they were too doughy (e.g. the ones that only use yoghurt as the wet ingredient) or too crisp to use as a wrap
They were moistened with lashings of butter. Absolutely delicious, mind you. But not what I was after.So this recipe is my idea of a perfect flatbread recipe.
Easy Soft Flatbread Recipe (no Yeast)
This flatbread recipe is made with no yeast. It is very easy to make, requiring just a minute or two of kneading.
And here I have used it as “naan” as a side for Butter Chicken. When I make it to be like “naan”, I cook it on a slightly higher heat to get larger and more brown bits on it – just like real naan! The crust gets slightly crispier so it’s not as suited to use as a wrap, like in the above photo. (PS If you’ve got the time to make proper naan, try my Naan recipe. It’s just like the real deal!)
If you’ve never tried homemade bread before, this flatbread recipe is a great oneto start with because it really is that easy. The worst that can happen with this flatbread recipe is that the heat is too high when you cook it so the exterior ends up a bit too crunchy and cracks when you roll it. If that happens, just spray it with olive oil or brush lightly with oil or butter and it will moisten the surface.

Recipe video above. The dough for this recipe is ridiculously easy to make with only a minute or two of kneading. The bread is soft and pliable so it’s perfect for using as a wrap, stuffed with whatever takes your fancy. It’s also a great make ahead recipe – the dough keeps for around 3 days. See NOTES for substitutions, including using GLUTEN FREE flour. 30 minute resting time. Recipe VIDEO below.
1. Higher heat and the thinner the dough = crispier crust, though still pliable inside, the thin crispy crust on the outside might crack when you roll it. This is how I make naan. The larger darker brown spots on the bread (see image in post) make it look like authentic naan, just like what you get at Indian restaurants! (If you got the time, here’s my proper naan recipemade with yeast. It’s just like you get at Indian restaurants – super soft and fluffy!)
2. STORING: Dough keeps in the refrigerator for around 3 days. Tip: Roll out the rounds, ready to cook. Just make sure you use baking paper or cling wrap to keep the pieces separated, flour will not suffice.

3. Wholemeal flour – Works great with WHOLE WHEAT flour, does not work with almond flour. See note 4 for Gluten Free.
4. Dairy free / vegan substitutions: A reader tried the original recipe then reported back that it also worked just as great substituting the butter with olive oil and almond milk for the dairy milk to make it a vegan / dairy free version. Brilliant! Another reader has also made this with coconut oil and reported it works great.
5. Gluten free option – This works pretty well with Gluten Free flour. You may need a bit of extra flour to roll it out – just add more as required. The texture is a bit different – a bit chewy, and you may not be able to roll them out into neat rounds like pictured.

Easy Flatbread Recipe (no Yeast)
Buttermilk or sour milk is added to the flour, baking powder, and salt. It is combined with a fork and then just gathered to form a soft dough. To make the sour milk, just add a teaspoon of lemon juice into a cup of whole or full-fat milk.
Allow it to stand for 5 minutes before adding to your flour. I have tried both, either buttermilk or sour milk in the recipe and it turns out perfectly delicious and soft. So use what you have, because both give great results.
After the dough is formed, you can leave it to rest for 10 to 20 minutes. This will help the gluten in the flour absorb the liquid and make rolling out easier. Divide the dough into six equal portions. Using a rolling pin, roll it to about ¼ inch / ½ cm thickness.
How To Make Homemade Pita Bread (easy Recipe)
Place one pita at a time on a nonstick or cast iron pan. Cook on medium heat for about 1 ½ minute on each side. When cooked, the pita will puff up to a thickness of about 1 cm
Since this recipe does not use yeast, the pita is not going to fill up with air and pop up. But it going to bubble and puff up, enough so that you can slit it with a sharp knife to create a pocket.
After it cooks and when you remove it from the pan, remember that it is not going to be soft immediately. To soften it place the hot pita bread under a clean kitchen towel and cover it, the steam will soften them and they will be flexible.
Ingredient Cheesy Flat Bread (no Yeast)
To serve with filling slice each pita in half through the center. With a very sharp knife, slit open the center of the pita and fill with veggies, spreads or meat of your choice.
These pitas are best eaten on the day that it is made. If you do have any leftovers then store them for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
To soften and warm, reheat in the microwave for about 15 seconds and cover with a kitchen towel for a few minutes to allow the steam to soften it. You could also warm it in a pan on the stove, remove from the heat and cover for a few minutes to soften.
