Homemade Naan Bread Recipe

Step 1

Attach the bread hook to your electric mixer. Add the yeast, sugar, and warm water to the mixing bowl and allow it to foam for 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the salt, butter, and yogurt. Then slowly add the flour to the mixture. Allow the mixer to “knead” your dough for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Oil the mixing bowl, then cover and let the dough rise until doubled in size, 1-2 hours.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place two baking sheets in the oven to heat. Baking stones work best!

Step 5

Dump the dough onto a floured surface. Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces. Use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough into large ovals, about the length and size of a large shoe.

Step 6

Place the ovals on parchment paper to rest. Once all the dough in ready, brush with melted butter and place on the HOT baking sheets, butter side down. Brush the tops with butter and bake for 3-4 per side, flipping once. Serve warm, brushed with more melted butter.
