If you’ve never tried naan before, or if it’s the first time you’ve heard of it, naan is basically a soft, yeast-leavened flatbread eaten in south Asian cuisines (in particular Indian cuisine).
Traditionally cooked in an outdoor tandoor oven, naan looks very similar to pita bread, and traditionally uses wheat flour as the base and requires yeast for leavening.
Easy Vegan Naan
I absolutely love Indian food, and one of my favorite versions of this Indian flatbread is garlic naan, in which fresh minced garlic is studded on the surface of this flatbread, and brings a burst of flavor so intense you can’t help but want to eat more of it.
Since we started cooking exclusively gluten-free at home 7 years ago (because my husband Juan is Celiac), one of the things I miss the most is dining out at Indian restaurants and tearing off a piece of garlic naan and eating it with curries of all kinds, such as this easy slow cooker lentil curry or this easy chickpea curry.
I know you’re going to be making this homemade naan bread on repeat simply because of how easy it is to make, and most importantly, because of how absolutely delicious it tastes!

In a large mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum (if using), tapioca starch, baking powder, and salt). Whisk well to combine.
Pour the wet mixture bit by bit into the large bowl with the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until you a soft dough forms. The dough should be pliable and easy to handle, and it shouldn’t break easily.
(TIP: If the dough is too dry, add a sprinkle of warm water at a time, and knead until pliable. If the dough is too wet, add a sprinkle of extra flour or tapioca starch until dough is no longer too sticky to handle)
Gluten Free No Yeast Naan In 30 Minutes
Use gluten-free floured hands to shape the naan dough ball into a round disc. Cut the round dough disc into 8 equal portions as you would a pizza.
Flatten each dough portion with either a rolling pin or your fingers on a floured surface until each piece is roughly 1/8-inch thick. You want the dough to be as thin as possible without breaking so the naan doesn’t get too thick.
Place a piece of flattened dough in the middle of the skillet and let it cook for approximately 40 seconds until air bubbles start to form at the surface of the dough and the bottom starts to char slightly.
Gluten Free No Yeast Naan
Brush the top of the dough with olive oil, flip it over, and let it cook for another 40 seconds before removing it from the skillet and placing it on a plate and covering it with a kitchen towel.
Start tearing into this delicious fragrant gluten-free naan bread and eat it real quick, because it won’t last very long (especially if you’re sharing it with a crowd!).
Naan is traditionally made of wheat flour (which contains gluten). That means that regular naan is not gluten-free, and hence Celiacs and those with gluten-intolerances are not able to eat it. However, by swapping out the wheat flour for a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, we’re making a gluten-free naan those on a gluten-free diet can enjoy!
Easy No Yeast Bread (no Dairy!)
Many traditional naan bread recipes also tend to include dairy yogurt, which means regular naan is not suitable for those with lactose intolerances.
To store, place the cooled gluten-free flatbread in an airtight container or wrap it in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Yes you can freeze this naan bread. To freeze, place the cooled naan in a freezer-safe container or ziplock bag and freeze for up to 2 months. Let frozen naan thaw completely overnight in the refrigerator before heating it up and serving.

Reheat naan in a cast iron pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until warm. (If naan was previously frozen, make sure it’s completely thawed before reheating it.)

Naan Bread Recipe
Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour:I recommend using a good-quality gluten-free all-purpose flour blend that is made of a mix of lighter flours/starches (such as rice flour, tapioca starch, corn starch or potato starch) to ensure a fluffier texture. I do NOT recommend using a flour blend with heavier flours such as garbanzo bean flour as that will result in a denser texture.
Xanthan Gum: Xanthan gum is a replacement for gluten in gluten-free baked goods, and helps to bind the ingredients together. If your gluten-free flour blend does not include xanthan gum, make sure to add it in.
Tapioca Starch: You can substitute tapioca starch for the same amount of cassava flour or arrowroot starch. Basically this starch is necessary to give the naan bread a chewy texture.
Ingredient Naan Bread (no Yeast)
Baking Powder: I recommend using aluminium-free baking powder to prevent any “metallic” taste that may be present especially when making a recipe that requires baking powder in high quantities to give it the yeast-free rise. If you are Celiac or intolerant/allergic to gluten, make sure you use certified gluten-free baking powder.
Egg: The egg in this recipe helps to bind the ingredients together. I personally haven’t tried making this gluten-free naan recipe without the egg, but if you are vegan or allergic to eggs, you can try using aquafaba or a flax egg.
Water: You may substitute the water for the same amount of non-dairy milk (such as my 5-minute cashew milkor my easy homemade almond milk). Alternatively, if you’re not lactose-intolerant, feel free to go ahead and use normal dairy milk.
Skillet Flatbread Recipe
Olive Oil: I like the taste that extra virgin olive oil imparts to the naan, but if you don’t have olive oil (or simply prefer not to use it), you can use other oils such as sunflower oil or avocado oil instead.
Cast Iron Skillet: I believe using a cast iron skillet will yield the best results, as cast iron mains high heat well and for a long time. However, if you don’t own a cast iron skillet, simply make sure to heat up your skillet very well before cooking the naan.
Storing/Freezing: To store, place the cooled naan in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To freeze, place the cooled naan in a freezer-safe container or ziplock bag and freeze for up to 2 months. Let frozen naan thaw completely overnight in the refrigerator before heating it up and serving.
