How to Make Lavash Bread
- In a large bowl, sprinkle yeast into warm water. Stir until completely dissolved.
- Add salt and yogurt to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose and whole wheat flours.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a stiff dough forms. If using a bread machine, follow the manufacturer's instructions for the dough cycle.
- If kneading by hand, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat the top.
- Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Gently punch down the dough and let it rise again until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a very thin circle, about 9 inches in diameter.
- Brush each lavash with a little olive oil and sprinkle with your chosen seeds.
- Transfer the lavash to a baking sheet.
- Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 5-6 minutes, or until the bread is dry, lightly browned, and blistered. Watch carefully to prevent burning!
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
