Fluffy Naan Recipe
March 8, 2022
Do you ever want freshly baked naan for a quick meal or snack but don’t know where to start? Fear not, for making naan is quite easy-and this recipe doesn’t require yeast!
Ingredients
- 1 cup of plain greek yogurt
- 1 1/3 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- Optional: garlic and butter for the topping or anything that fits your mood
If you do choose to create a garlic butter topping, be sure to mix and heat up the ingredients over in the pan for 5 minutes on medium flame
- First, mix all the dry ingredients in one bowl.
- Then add the yogurt and slowly start mixing with the spoon. Be sure not to pat down the dough, instead just slowly fold the dough into one another. After a few folds and once the yogurt is mixed into the mixture, start kneading onto a lightly floured surface.
- When kneading, keep in mind not to push into the dough, or the naan will be flat and dense. Gently use the palms of the hand to a fluffy round mound of bread.
- Cut the bread into 4ths and use a rolling pin to flatten each piece like a pancake. It does not have to be a perfect circle, though they should be around 6-7 inches.
- Now, place the naan circles onto the frying pan.! Each side of the naan should only take 2-4 minutes until it becomes toasty brown or develops bubbles, which can be popped w/ the spatula.
- After they are all are finished cooking, the naan is ready for eating with butter or with veggie/meat filling. Enjoy!
