Dough Ingredients

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix the Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix thoroughly.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the activated yeast mixture, yogurt, and oil into it. Mix until the dough starts to come together.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for approximately 1-2 hours until it doubles in size.
