If you have leftovers for more than 3 days, I recommend freezing the pitas to keep them fresh when you reheat them.
Reheat this in the microwave for 30 seconds or in the toaster oven or oven that is preheated to 180c (350f) for 3-5 minutes until it's warm and soft.

Being an Indian my love for Naans, Rotis and Phulkas are in-built. However, I understand that some of you reading this post might not be aware of the same.
Naan bread is a leavened flatbread usually made using Yeast as the leavening agent and the speciality of this flatbread is being cooked in the Tandoor; hence the name Tandoori Naan.
The Best Naan Bread Recipe
Tandoor is basically a cylindrical clay pot. The heat is generated by heating up charcoal or wood fire and the temperature can go up to 900°F.
Once you reach such high temperature, the naan bread dough is then stuck to the sides of the pot thereby being exposed to direct fire to cook which results in the classic brown blisters that you see on top of the naan.
Of course, no one has a tandoor oven at home. But still, I am going to share with you guys the exact trick of sticking the naan bread dough to your iron skillets and cooking them in a way to get that perfect brown blisters by mimicking the technique for direct-fire cooking.

So definitely stay tuned for all the tips, tricks, videos, step by step photos to help you make the best homemade naan bread ever. I have two other bread posts that I would like to suggest to you guys at this stage to check out because of the details and tips that I have shared in that too.
The basics of understanding how to make the best bread at home (be it any bread for that sake) is to understand what ingredients go into it and the role of each ingredient as well.
Naan is usually a leavened flatbread made using APF or Maida whereas Roti is an unleavened flatbread made using Whole Wheat Flour.
Ingredient Dough Cheese Naan
These days due to health constraints you do get whole wheat naan in some restaurants back in India, well I will reserve that for some other day and today let us focus on the most common type of Indian bread available everywhere which is made using Plain Flour.
Well, not really even though the ingredients and method of kneading are somewhat similar there is a huge difference in the way or the preparation of the two. So definitely, they are not the same.
I have shared a detailed post on How to Make Pita Bread at home both using APF and Whole Wheat, you can refer that for additional details.
Ingredient Dough Naan (no Yeast!)
If you are using the active variety you might have to do the one extra step of activating the yeast, since I always tend to use Instant variety I directly add it to my dough without the need to activate.
An authentic Naan recipe is made using yeast as the leavening agent, however, these days a non-traditional way of making naan is by using yoghurt and baking soda and powder instead of yeast.
The recipe would vary slightly in that case. I will mention the substitution if possible in the recipe card or else would make a separate post altogether.
Butter Naan Recipe, How To Make Naan
Milk would make the dough softer and keep the dough well-hydrated ultimately yielding a much softer naan. Also helps to get that beautiful brown colour on top.
The key point here is to remember to make sure that the milk is neither too hot nor too cold. Too hot would kill the yeast in the dough and too cold will not activate the yeast in the first place.
I like to dip my little finger (don't worry I wash my hands before starting with any recipe 🙂 ) into the milk or water and if I could place it there and count till 1 to 20 without feeling the need to take my finger out which I would if it were too hot then I know that the temperature is just right.
Homemade Naan Recipe
We are going to replace the role of the egg with just a little yoghurt in the recipe. Just a small amount that is a quarter of a cup of yoghurt will also make sure that the dough is so much softer.
Blah blah.. I know you might be bored by now.. 😉 But Milk Powder is also added to soften the dough. But this is optional since we are using milk to knead the dough you can skip the milk powder if you like.
Let us consider other ingredients like salt, sugar and oil as additives here. Their role is not too significant enough but you need them too.
Naan Recipe Without Yogurt
Now don't get intimidated with the list of ingredients, trust me its a really basic dough which would come together in no time.
Just like any other yeast-leavened bread dough the basic steps like Kneading, Proofing, Shaping, and Cooking remains the same for this one too.
In my last Pita Bread recipe, many of you asked me to share steps on How to Activate the Yeastso including that in this one.
