My Indian-inspired Naan recipe is also great because it’s very easy to make at home! You only need a few ingredients to make the naan dough, and the process of shaping the naan and cooking them is fun and simple to do.

It’s a great recipe to make with children, by the way! Kids love to work with bread dough, and this one is especially great because it’s cooked on the stovetop instead of in the oven. That way, they can see it cooking up right before their eyes.

At heart, Naan is a simple flatbread, similar to pita bread or even tortillas. It’s part of traditional Indian cuisine, and is usually made in a clay oven called a tandoor. The dough is kneaded, then shaped, and finally slapped onto the sides of the hot tandoor. They bake up crunchy on the bottom and bubbly on top. They are lightly browned, even charred, and utterly delicious!

Pita bread is usually a very basic recipe using just flour, water, yeast, oil, and salt. But, Naan bread is enriched with yogurt, and sometimes butter and eggs. The result is flavorful and chewy, perfect for eating plain or with a savory entree.

So is naan healthy? Like most baked goods, it can be… or it can be kind of iffy, made with low-quality ingredients and lots of preservatives. AND, high carbs. 😬

This version, however, is definitely on the healthier side, thanks to the simple ingredients: sour cream and flour. That’s right! There’s no hydrogenated oil, sugar, or other questionable stuff in here. Just a simple and healthy side dish that everyone will want seconds of!

This is one you won’t be able to forget! As I mentioned before, there are only two basic ingredients here. If you keep sour cream on hand, like I do, you can make it anytime!

Here’s where it gets fun. I let the stand mixer do all of the work, and then cut, shape, and cook my naan in a pan on top of the stove. That way, I can get a nice crunchy-chewy exterior, even without a tandoor.

Homemade Naan Recipe Without Yeast

Fresh homemade flatbread right off the griddle and slathered in garlic butter has got to be one of life’s best things. Or at least it is for me! My sister and I used to dine at a local Indian restaurant just for their naan, eating our weight in it, barely having room for anything else. I make naan bread at home now pretty regularly since it’s so easy and my kids absolutely love it, too.

Naan is a traditional Indian flatbread, which is soft and pillowy, full of neat little air pockets. Authentic naan is baked in a blazing-hot Tandoor clay oven, but you can get great results simply by using a hot cast iron skillet.

These are both classic Indian flatbreads, but their origins, ingredients, and cooking methods are different. Pita bread is from the Middle East and just includes flour, salt, yeast, and olive oil and forms one huge air pocket. Naan hails from India and includes yogurt and egg in the dough, which causes several little bubbles to form, making it nice and fluffy.

How To Make Flatbread {easy, Soft Yeast Recipe}

Just mix the four ingredients together, knead a few times, then roll out the dough and dry fry for a few minutes.

These naan breads would be perfect with this healthy spinach and chickpea curry , Tofu Curry, Chickpea Curry, Bombay Aloo or even as a flatbread with my Spanish beans.

Frying pan - one that can withstand a fairly high heat. Cast iron works great, but any other skillet or frying pan will work.

You don't need to properly knead the dough, just bring it all together and knead a couple of times to do so.

I usually roll out one naan while another is cooking. If you roll them all out first, then they could get warm and stick to the counter.

You want a sticky, but manageable dough. If it's dry, add a little more yogurt, if it's too wet to roll, add a little flour. The amounts vary depending on brands and how thick the yogurt is.
