Cooking Tools Required

Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, Mixing spoon, Rolling Pin, Skillet, Spatula, Top Stove

Ingredients

4 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour and adjust the amount as it might absorb the yogurt differently
2 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or dairy free for vegan
4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

Instructions

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Knead it for a minute or so in the bowl until it comes together in a fairly sticky ball. If necessary, add a little more flour.
Divide it into ten equal pieces. Using a rolling pin dusted with flour, roll each one out onto a floured surface to about 6” diameter or so. Tip - roll out one naan while another is cooking. If you roll them all out first, then they could get warm and stick to the counter.
Heat a frying pan (without oil) until hot. Cook each flatbread for a few minutes on each side until lightly golden spots appear and it puffs up.
Best eaten on the same day. If making ahead, warm them up in the oven before serving.

Reheating Instructions

REHEAT - to desired temperature using your preferred heating method. STORAGE - the naan dough can be made up to 3 days ahead. Just keep in the fridge until ready to roll and cook. Keep leftovers in the fridge and reheat in a frying pan or in the toaster. It makes them crispier and still delicious.
