Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten free all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup plain greek yogurt I used Kite Hill dairy free
  • 7 tbsp water
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, water, egg and melted butter until combined.
  • Fold in the flour, baking powder and salt until a dough forms. be sure to spoon and level the flour to measure, don't scoop from the bag or you will end up with more than you need and the dough will be too dry. It will likely seem sticky at this point, but don't add more flour! If the dough seems dry at all, fold in 1 more tablespoon of water.
  • Cover and set in the fridge for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, take about 1/3 cup of dough and add to a piece of parchment paper that is lightly floured. Flour your rolling pin and roll the dough out into about 1/2 inch thick piece.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet (I lightly greased mine before the first piece, but did not continue to grease between pieces) and add the dough.
  • Cook on each side until the top begins to bubble up, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • Repeat until all dough has been used.
  • Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with chopped cilantro and chives. Enjoy!

Notes

I have not tested this recipe with an egg substitute. My suggestion would be to try a flax egg (1 tbsp flax seeds + 3 tbsp water) or use an extra 1/4 cup of greek yogurt.
I used the Bob's Red Mill 1:1 All Purpose Baking Flour, which I recommend for this recipe. You can try another blend with varying results, just make sure it has xanthan gum in the mix.
