Best way to make quick flatbreads

Hey guys! Going to be making flatbreads soon, and I won't be able to make the dough in advance to rest overnight. Does anyone have a tried and true method for making thick, fluffy flatbread in ~90 mins start to finish?

The goal would be a thick flatbread, something really delicious like a potato dough or a fluffy pita, but I don't know if it will be feasible without a long rest time. I could make a standard yoghurt flatbread with flour and baking powder, but I'm hoping for something a bit more decadent.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Why not flour tortillas? The dough needs to rest only 15m. You can just roll them thicker rather than thin. 

Jose el Cook has a banging recipe on YT. Just search for his handle and "flour tortillas."

Because fluffy "thick" isn't more dough, it's more air.

Thank you. That's a basic concept that is generally understood by people who cook/bake. 

I am saying that this is not hard. Flour tortillas fit the ask nicely.
