Ingredients:
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for a touch of sweetness)
- 1/4 cup milk (if needed for consistency)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional, if self-rising flour is not salted)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter (optional, for brushing on top)
Directions:
- Preheat Your Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If you have a baking stone or baking sheet, place it in the oven to heat up.
- Mix the Dough:
- In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour, Greek yogurt, and honey (if using). Stir until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add milk a little at a time until you achieve a workable consistency.
- Knead the Dough:
- Lightly flour a surface and knead the dough for about 1-2 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Shape the Bread:
- Divide the dough into 6-8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a round or oval shape, flattening slightly. For a more rustic look, you can leave them as freeform shapes.
- Bake the Bread:
- Place the dough pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet or directly on the preheated baking stone. Brush the tops with melted butter if desired for a golden crust.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm with your favorite toppings or as a side to any meal.
