Naan

One thing that always stopped me from making Naan, was that all the recipes called for yogurt to make the dough. While there are times that I am lucky enough to find a plant-based, unsweetened, no sugar-added yogurt at the store, it isn't something I always have on hand. That is why this recipe is so great, you do not have to have any special vegan yogurt to make it.

​It only takes a few ingredients that are hopefully regular staples in most people's household. Also, since yeast is not used in this recipe there is no waiting around for the dough to rise, just about 10 minutes for the dough to rest after kneading (in which time you can prepare some Hummus for dipping!). Then roll out and pop it in the oven. After 15 minutes your freshly baked Naan is ready.

Naan Recipe
vegan, plant-based, refined sugar-free
Ingredients:

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Almond Milk or other plant-based milk
• 2 tsp Baking powder
• 1/2-1 tsp Salt
• 1 Clove garlic, minced

 
Instructions:

1. Add all ingredients to a large bowl and mix to combine.
2. Once the ingredients come together, begin to knead with your hands until the dough becomes soft and pliable (about 5 minutes). If it is too sticky, dust with some flour.
3. Let the dough rest for about 10 minutes.
4. Then divide the dough into 8 pieces.
5. On a floured surface roll out each piece of dough to a thin layer.
6. You can then either put these in the oven for 15 minutes at 350°F or heat a non-stick frying pan and heat each side for a few minutes until bubbles form and until browned.
