Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Water
- 0.25 cup Plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced, optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped, optional)
Instructions
In the bread machine pan, add water, yogurt, and olive oil.
Sprinkle all-purpose flour evenly over the liquid layer to form a barrier.
Add sugar, salt, and active dry yeast on top of the flour layer.
Set the bread machine to the 'dough' cycle and start it. This cycle allows the dough to mix, knead, and rise perfectly.
Once the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough from the bread machine and place it on a lightly floured surface.
Divide the dough into six equal portions and shape each into a ball.
Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into an oval or circular shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Heat a nonstick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
Cook each piece of naan in the hot pan for 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles form. Flip and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown spots appear.
Brush the warm naan with melted butter and sprinkle with minced garlic and/or chopped cilantro, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy with your favorite dishes.
