Lavash Balloon Bread Recipe

Lavash is a Turkish bread type that basically made with flour, water, and salt. In Turkey, it is mainly served with Kebabs in restaurants; however, we love to eat lavash bread with any dish too. It is also a very common bread type in other Turkic countries such as Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan. You can eat it either hot or cold. In both ways, it is my favorite bread type. And hopefully, after today it will be your favorite bread type too.

There are different types of Lavash bread in Turkey but two of them are the most common ones. The first type has a thin, crusty, and large round shape which cooks either in pit ovens or on the special large cast irons. The second one also has a thin but balloon shape that can cook mostly at restaurant’s stone ovens or on the regular stove by using a non-stick pan.

The balloon shape Lavash bread has fewer additional ingredients than the classic one and the cooking method is slightly different. Today, I am going to share with you the recipe of balloon shape Lavash bread.
