• Wrap the dough in plastic and let rest for 30 minutes to an hour.
• Divide the dough into six equal portions.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium-high heat.
• Using a rolling pin, flatten each dough ball until it's about 6 inches in diameter. (Dust the dough and your work surface with flour as needed.)
• Transfer the dough to the griddle one piece at a time, then cook for one to two minutes per side, flipping to the second side when you start to see the dough rise. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.

BLUEBERRY BREAD

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 8x4-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Place the blueberries in a separate bowl and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the dry ingredients (this will help keep the blueberries from sinking to the bottom).
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey, melted butter, vanilla, and lemon zest until smoothly combined. Whisk in the eggs. If the butter resolidifies, gently warm the bowl in the microwave, just until it melts again.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and with a wooden spoon or spatula, very gently stir the batter, stopping as soon as the flour disappears. Fold in the blueberries.
• For the topping, if using: In a small bowl, stir together the raw sugar and cinnamon.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar topping, if using. Bake for 30 minutes, then loosely tent the pan with foil to keep the bread from browning too quickly. Continue baking for 15 to 20 additional minutes (45 to 50 minutes total), or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean without any wet batter clinging to it. Place the pan on a wire rack and let cool completely. Transfer to a cutting board, slice, and enjoy!

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients in the order given above making sure that you do not let the yeast touch any of the wet ingredients.

WHOLE WHEAT YOGURT BREAD

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in a bread machine and set on the dough setting.
• After a few minutes, check the dough. Is it clinging together and starting to form a ball? If not, add 1 Tablespoon of water and let go for a minute longer and check it again. Repeat as necessary.
• When the dough is ready, preheat the oven to 170 F, then turn it off. Put the bread in a bread pan, shaping the top of the loaf to be nicely rounded. Spray the top with cooking spray.
• Set the bread pan in the oven, cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise for 40 minutes or until the dough is nice and puffy. Gently pull the towel off of the bread (leaving the loaf in place in the oven) and close the oven. Set the oven to 350 F and bake for 45 minutes or so until the bread is nicely golden brown on top.
