Homemade Naan Recipe



My goal this year is to start making our breads/starches from scratch. Not because I wanted to be Suzy homemaker, but because for the price of a loaf of bread I could get a bag of flour to make at least 3 of those loaves. I wanted us to try something new to pair with our meals, hence this recipe for Naan. This was easy to make and delicious. I made mini naans for Haidyn and bigger ones for Waymon for his lunch /to snack on. 


INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 3 cups flour, plus a few tbsp for workspace

DIRECTIONS:
  1. Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes .

  2. Add salt and flour mixing thoroughly.

  3. Knead dough on a floured surface for about 2 minutes forming a ball from the dough


  4. Put dough in a well oiled bowl and cover with a damp towel.
  5. Put in a warm place to rise for 30-45 minutes. **don’t skip this step!  
  6. Turn dough out onto a floured workspace and roll out until approx 1/8" thick. – **Don’t worry about making them perfect.

  7. Heat up a  frying pan to medium-high heat, spray with some nonstick cooking spray and grill 1-2 minutes on each side. You may also use a grill/electrical grill.
