Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2/3 cup Warm Water ((about 110 degrees))
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast ((1 packet))
  • 2 teaspoons Sugar
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 1/3 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 2 Tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil ((plus more for cooking))
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 4 Tablespoons Melted Butter ((for brushing on the top))
  • Oil ((for cooking))

Instruction

  • In a small bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Stir. Let sit for 5-10 minutes and allow the yeast to bubble and proof. *
  • In a large bowl, add flour, greek yogurt, oil, and salt. Stir in yeast mixture. Combine with hands. The dough may be shaggy but keep mixing until you form a ball. Once you form a ball, knead the dough for about 5-10 minutues or until the dough is smooth.
  • Cover and set aside in a warm place to rise for at least 1 hour. It should double in size.
  • Remove from the bowl and place on a counter or board sprinkled with flour. Divide dough into 8 equal portions. Roll into approximately 8" circle or rectangle, about 1/8" thick.
  • Heat skillet or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle pan with oil. Add each naan and reduce heat to medium. Watch for it to begin to bubble. The oil makes a difference in allowing the naan to puff up and bubble. Cook for about 3 minutes on the first side and then flip and cook for 2 minutes longer.
  • Watch the naan carefully as you may want to lower the heat if it becomes too brown too fast. Remove from pan and brush with melted butter and serve immediately.
