Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Mix the Dough
-
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
-
Stir in the grated carrots and cheese, coating them well with the flour mixture.
-
Add yogurt and olive oil, mixing until a soft dough forms. If it’s sticky, add a little extra flour.
2. Rest the Dough
-
Cover and let the dough rest for 15 minutes. This helps it relax and makes rolling easier.
3. Shape the Flatbreads
-
Divide the dough into 6–8 equal pieces.
-
Roll each piece into a flat round or oval, about ¼ inch thick.
4. Cook the Flatbreads
-
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
-
Cook each flatbread for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown with melted cheese inside.
-
Brush lightly with olive oil or butter for extra flavor.
5. Serve Warm
-
Serve hot, garnished with herbs or a sprinkle of extra cheese on top.
Tips and Variations
-
For extra cheesiness: Stuff a bit of shredded cheese inside the dough before rolling it out.
-
Make it spicier: Add chili flakes, cumin, or paprika to the dough.
-
Dairy-free option: Use vegan cheese and a plant-based yogurt.
-
Meal prep: Store in an airtight container for 2 days or freeze for up to a month—just reheat on a pan or in the oven.
Serving Ideas

Pair with creamy soups like tomato or mushroom.
