Easy Naan Bread Recipe

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup warm water
• 2 tsp instant yeast
• 1 tsp sugar
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 1/4 cup plain yogurt
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour (more or less)
• 2 Tbsp melted butter
• 2 tsp garlic (minced (optional))

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl; let sit for five minutes or till bubbly. Add olive oil, yogurt, egg, salt and 2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Stir till smooth.

2. 2

   Add enough flour to make a soft dough. Knead a few times on a floured counter until smooth.

3. 3

   Place dough in a greased bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, 30-60 minutes.

4. 4

   Cut the dough ball into eight equal portions. On a floured work surface, use a rolling pin to roll out each piece into a 6" circle.

5. 5

   Preheat a large skillet to medium heat.

6. 6

   Add a little oil or non-stick spray to the skillet. Cook each circle for 2-3 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown on the bottom. Flip over and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

7. 7

   Brush the top of each naan with melted butter. I added garlic to my butter, but that is optional.
