Ingredients

1 C sourdough starter active, 100% hydration
1/2 C milk warmed to 105-110 degrees
2 C all purpose flour
1/4 C Greek yogurt with live, active cultures
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt or more to taste
4 Tbsp butter melted

Instructions

In your mixer bowl, combine all of the ingredients with the exception of the melted butter.
Using your dough hook, mix for 3-4 minutes until the ingredients are combined. The dough will be shaggy and sticky.
Dump the dough out on a floured counter and work into a ball. Wash out the mixer bowl and lightly grease with a tiny bit of olive oil. Add the dough back to the bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise for 4-5 hours.
Preheat the griddle to medium heat for 3-4 minutes. During that time, dump the dough out on a lightly floured counter and separate into 8 equal sections.
Roll each section out to 1/4 inch pieces. Transfer to your griddle and brush with melted butter. Cook on each side for 1 - 1.5 minutes. Flip, and brush the opposite side with more melted butter.
Each side is cooked when it starts to bubble and brown up slightly in patches. Transfer to a towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Enjoy
