  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or ghee

Instructions

  1. 1. Prepare the Dough: In a bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Gradually add warm water and Greek yogurt until a shaggy dough forms.
  2. 2. Knead: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. 3. Let it Rise: Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area for 1–2 hours until doubled in size.
