Liquid Dough, Garlic Flatbread

Here’s a simple and delicious Liquid Dough Garlic Flatbread recipe — soft, pan-cooked, and infused with garlicky goodness. This version uses a pourable batter (like pancake consistency) instead of kneaded dough, making it fast and beginner-friendly. Perfect as a side for curries, soups, or dips!

Liquid Dough Garlic Flatbread

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)

  • 1 cup water (adjust for pourable consistency)

  • ½ tsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 2 tbsp plain yogurt (for softness, optional)

  • 1–2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander or parsley (optional)

  • 2–3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1–2 tbsp olive oil or butter (for pan + brushing)

  • Optional: pinch of sugar (balances flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Make the Batter:

    • In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.

    • Add yogurt (if using), water gradually, and whisk to a smooth, pourable batter (like pancake batter).

    • Stir in the minced garlic and chopped herbs.

  2. Cook the Flatbread:

    • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with oil or butter.

    • Pour about ¼ to ⅓ cup of batter onto the pan. Tilt or spread gently with a spoon to make a round shape (6–7 inches).

    • Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form and edges begin to set. Flip and cook another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.

  3. Finish and Serve:

    • Brush the hot flatbread with melted butter or oil. Sprinkle extra garlic or herbs if desired.

    • Serve warm with curries, stews, or use as a wrap.

Tips:

  • You can add shredded cheese or chili flakes into the batter for variety.

  • For a crispier edge, cook with a little extra oil.

  • Can be made gluten-free with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
