Discover the joys of making your own lavash, a traditional soft, thin flatbread, with this quick and easy recipe that uses chickpeas and yogurt instead of yeast. Not only is this recipe incredibly simple and fast, but it also produces a deliciously soft and flavorful lavash in just about 10 minutes. Perfect for those who love to bake bread at home without the fuss of yeast.
Why Chickpeas and Yogurt?
Chickpeas, when ground into flour, offer a high-protein alternative to traditional wheat flour, making this recipe ideal for those looking for gluten-free options or just wanting to try something different. Yogurt adds a slight tang and richness to the dough, helping to tenderize it without the use of unhealthy fats, creating a soft texture that’s perfect for wrapping or dipping.
Ingredients:
1. Prepare the Dough:
In a mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour and salt. Add the yogurt and start mixing with a spoon or your hands.
Gradually add a little warm water until the mixture comes together to form a soft, pliable dough. The dough should be easy to handle and not too sticky.
2. Knead the Dough:
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface (using chickpea flour) and knead gently for about 2-3 minutes. If desired, knead in herbs or spices to enhance the flavor.
3. Roll Out the Lavash:
Divide the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
Using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a thin circle or oval shape. Aim for the dough to be as thin as possible without tearing.
4. Cook the Lavash:
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place a rolled-out dough circle onto the skillet.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side or until the surface is golden brown and bubbly. Flip and cook the other side.
5. Serve:
Serve the warm lavash immediately. It’s perfect for wrapping vegetables and grilled meats or simply dipping into hummus or other spreads.
