Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Rolling pin
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Clean kitchen towel

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 packet dry yeast
  • 2 cups warm milk
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp yogurt
  • 5 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Add the sugar, dry yeast, and warm milk to a large mixing bowl. Stir gently until the yeast dissolves.
  • Add olive oil and yogurt to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
  • Gradually add flour and salt, stirring until the dough comes together in a soft, pliable ball.

  • Preheat oven to 250°F (121°C) and bake the bread for 6 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Notes

For added flavor, brush the bread with melted butter before baking for a golden crust. Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
