What am I going to do with all this yogurt?

Good thing you asked, tubby.

Yogurt for Lower Fat Baking

Yogurt not only is a tangy dairy treat but it also serves as a great substitute for high-fat ingredients in baking. Low-fat or fat-free yogurt can be used to reduce or replace shortening, oil, butter or sour cream in baked goods. It cuts the fat and adds a creamy texture and tenderness to your recipes. Plus, it’s packed with protein and calcium.

I personally like to use yogurt in making chipatis, the Indian flatbread made in heaven.  Just some flour and yogurt, a pinch of salt.  You mix and knead it, make balls and roll them flat.  Then you heat them in an ungreased pan for about a minute.  Making them puff up is a bit tricky, but not required.
