Ingredients
Dough
- 1 3/4 cups self-rising flour (use gluten-free if needed)
- 1 cup Greek Yogurt (vegan Greek yogurt, non-fat, full-fat or reduced fat)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Optional
- 1 tablespoon butter of choice (for brushing, optional)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, salt, and Greek yogurt. Mix thoroughly until a dough begins to form, then use your hands to knead and shape it into a large ball.
- Prepare Dough Portions: Lightly flour a clean wooden or kitchen surface. Sprinkle additional flour on top of the dough ball, then transfer it to this surface. Flatten the dough into a circular shape and divide it into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a rectangular naan shape.
- Cook the Naan: Heat a non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Once hot, add one piece of flattened dough and cook for approximately 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for 2 minutes. Repeat this process with the remaining dough portions until all naans are cooked through and slightly browned.
- Optional Finishing Touch: If desired, brush each cooked naan with melted butter immediately after cooking to add flavor and sheen.
Notes
- You can use gluten-free self-rising flour to make this recipe gluten-free.
- Greek yogurt can be full-fat, reduced fat, non-fat, or vegan yogurt based on your preference.
- Do not skip the flouring step to prevent the dough from sticking to the surface while shaping.
- Cook the naan on medium heat to ensure the bread cooks fully without burning.
- Brushing with butter after cooking is optional but adds extra flavor and softness.
