In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat atta flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Gradually add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spoon or your hands until a dough begins to form.
If using, add the Greek yogurt and continue to mix until the dough is smooth and pliable. Adjust with small amounts of water if necessary.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until it becomes elastic and smooth.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the gluten to relax.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a thin, round disc about 6-8 inches in diameter.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium-high heat.
Place one rolled tortilla onto the hot skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes until bubbles form and the bottom begins to brown.
Flip the tortilla and cook for another 1-2 minutes, pressing lightly with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
Repeat the process for the remaining dough balls and stack the cooked tortillas in a clean towel to keep them warm.
Serve warm as a wrap or with your favorite curry or filling.
