Spinach & Cheese Stuffed Flatbread
The Easiest Spinach and Cheesy Flatbread
No Yeast, No Fuss – Just Pure Comfort
There’s something magic about bread that doesn’t make you wait. No yeast, no proofing, no fuss, just a simple two-ingredient dough (yes, really) that comes together in minutes. I make this on repeat, especially when I want something a little extra to serve with soup or mop up a saucy curry.
All you need is self-raising flour and Greek yoghurt. That’s it. It rolls out soft, fries up golden, and gives big I spent hours in the kitchen energy, even though you didn’t.
Tip: If you’re out of self-raising flour, don’t stress , just mix 1½ teaspoons of baking powder per 1 cup of plain flour and you’re good to go.
A Gooey, Herby Filling That Steals the Show
Now let’s talk about the inside, because this is where it gets really good. The filling is a dreamy mix of sautéed spinach, salty feta, sharp cheddar, spring onions and herbs. It's melty, herby, and just the right amount of salty.
You fold it up, seal the edges, and let it sizzle away in a hot pan until the outside is golden and crisp. Then you tear into it and get that stretchy cheese pull and warm, savoury hit that makes you feel like you’ve just been hugged from the inside out.
Spinach & Cheese Stuffed Flatbread
Makes: 4 Serves
Prep Time: 20-25 minutes
Cooking time: 10-15 minutes
Ingredients:
200g self raising flour
175g natural Greek yogurt
100g feta
70g cheddar
100g spinach
1/3 packed cup of spring onions (green part chopped)
1/3 packed cup of fresh herbs - Dill, Parsley & mint (finely chopped) - use what you have on hand
Method:
Dough:
1. Combine flour and yogurt in a mixing bowl. Stir with a spoon until a rough dough forms.
2. Knead the dough with your hands, squeezing as you go. This helps the flour absorb the moisture properly
3. Lightly flour a flat surface and transfer dough, keep kneading until a smooth dough forms. It may still be a little sticky, this is okay
4. Place the dough in a bowl and cover it with a clean tea towel. Let it rest while you prepare the filling
Filling:
1. Heat olive oil in a pan and sauté spinach until wilted
2. Remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes
3. In a bowl combine cooled spinach, feta, cheddar, chopped herbs and spring onions
Flat Bread:
1. Divide the dough into four equal portions. Keep the extra pieces covered to prevent drying out
2. Take one portion and place it on a floured surface, use a rolling pin to gently flatten it into a rough circle
3. Spoon 1/4 cup of filling into the centre of the dough
4. Fold edges: Take each corner and bring it toward the center, pinching to seal. Make sure there are no gaps, you want the filling completely enclosed.
5. Flatten again gently with a rolling pin to create a sealed, filled flatbread. Be careful not to press to hard or tear the dough.
6. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat
7. Place the flatbread in pan and cook for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
8. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling
9. Serve and enjoy!!!
