  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, add herbs like rosemary or thyme to the dough before baking.
  • Try using dairy-free yogurt to make this flatbread suitable for a dairy-free diet.
  • Cook flatbreads on a hot skillet if you prefer stovetop cooking or want a quicker method.
  • Adjust thickness by rolling dough thinner for crispier flatbreads or thicker for soft and chewy ones.

Storage

Store leftover flatbreads in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days. To reheat, warm them in a pan over medium heat or in the oven until heated through to retain softness and flavor.

How to Serve

Two pieces of naan bread are placed slightly overlapping on a round white plate. Each naan is golden brown with some darker charred spots, showing a soft and fluffy texture with slight air bubbles. The top surface has a layer of melted butter that glistens, sprinkled evenly with chopped herbs which add green flecks across the light beige bread. The plate sits on a white marbled surface near a window with natural light softly highlighting the textures. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of gluten-free flour?

Yes, you can substitute with regular all-purpose flour if gluten isn’t a concern, but the texture may differ slightly.

Is Greek yogurt essential in this recipe?

Greek yogurt provides moisture and tang while helping bind the dough. You can substitute with a similar thick yogurt, but avoid runny yogurts to maintain the dough consistency.
