    Easy Flatbread (No Yeast)

    Written by Kathrin (Leave a Comment)

    Our easy no-yeast flatbread is quickly made with only a few common ingredients. This makes the soft pan-fried flatbread perfect for dinner or as a snack.

    quick pan-fried flatbread

    We love a soft no-yeast flatbread!

    And so for some time, we have been serving our pan-fried flatbread at least once a week for dinner. Sometimes with dips, sometimes with salad, sometimes with cheese.

    A huge advantage: such a pan-fried no-yeast flatbread is quickly prepared and based on a few common ingredients that you always have at home anyway. The pan-fried flatbread recipe can be modified with yogurt, milk or spices.

    no-yeast Flatbread

    Taste and Occasion

    The most important thing is, of course, the taste. Depending on the type of flour and refining ingredients, it can be mild or intense and spicy. The pan-fried flatbread rises well and becomes airy and fluffy. For us, it is the perfect companion for curries or soups - or just an easy change to an ordinary supper.

    When I tell my family that there will be frying pan flatbread again, there is always a great joy. And the result tastes or looks slightly different every time. Because the terms "pan-fried flatbread" and "skillet flatbread" in itself refer to a method of preparation rather than a specific recipe.

    My experience: Any bread dough can also be baked in a pan. So when I make normal bread dough, whether with sourdough or yeast, with white flour or wholemeal, I always make quick flatbread from a part of it. To make sure you can start right away, I will tell you my absolute basic recipe for no-yeast flatbread with baking powder in this article.

    Fast frying pan flatbread

    Ingredients

    For the flour you can take e.g. normal white flour, spelt flour, or a part of wholemeal flour. You will also need a dash of olive or sunflower oil.

    In the basic version, the pan bread is vegan. You can also use milk or yogurt instead of water, although vegetable milk or soy yogurt are also possible.

    Recipe Recommendation

    Turkish Borek with Spinach and Cheese

    Turkish Borek with Spinach and Cheese are delicious dough rolls from Turkish cuisine. Borek with feta cheese and spinach is a great snack and is either baked in the oven or deep-fried.

    The preparation of the pan-fried no-yeast flatbread is very easy. First of all, place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix them to a smooth, soft dough. The flatbread with baking powder only needs to rest for 10 minutes.

    After that, heat up a coated pan and divide the dough into about 8 portions. Fry them one by one with a little oil at medium heat from both sides. The dough is quite sticky, so it might be easy to take a spoon of dough, put it into the pan and press it flat while turning it with the spatula. When your flatbread gets a light brown color on both sides it is ready to serve.

    Top Tip

    Herbs, spices, onions, olives, jalapenos, vegetable cubes, etc. are suitable for refining the pan bread without yeast.

    But it also tastes delicious on its own. Try it out for yourself! The quick and easy flatbread in the pan is a great change to the "conventional" bread from the oven.
