Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Yeast Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, warm water, sugar, and instant dry yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. Mix the Dough: Once frothy, add bread flour and salt. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
  3. First Rise: Cover the dough and place it in a warm area for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Shape the Dough: Lightly flour your surface, turn out the dough, divide into 6 portions, and shape each into a round disk.
  5. Cook the Flatbreads: Preheat a pan, cook each flatbread for 1-2 minutes per side until golden.
  6. Finish and Serve: Brush cooked flatbreads with melted butter or olive oil and serve warm.
