Vegan Naan (4 Ingredients, No Yeast)

Naan! Soft, amazing, delicious naan. Since going vegan, having to skip out on naan at Indian restaurants because they normally contain dairy SUCKS. Like roti is good, but naan is GREAT. So here's my quick vegan naan that's also high in protein in lower in carbs unlike most naan from restaurants or the grocery store. Naan is normally made with yeast, but thanks to baking powder, we skip that whole hour long process.

Ingredients

• Spray oil (optional)

• 2 containers (10.6 oz total) of Kite Hill Vegan Greek Yogurt * (see note for subs)

• 1 3/4 cup (210 grams) All Purpose Flour (and extra for dusting)

• 1 tablespoon Baking Powder

• 1 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Optional: Vegan butter, garlic salt, parsley

Instructions

1. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.

3. Pour vegan greek yogurts into the flour mixture. Use a measuring cup if needed (measure out 1 cup of plain vegan yogurt).

4. Combine mixture with a spatula until a ball forms. You can also use your hands to combine the flour mixture and yogurt by kneading. The dough should not be TOO sticky, a little can still stick to your hands when kneading together.

5. Once the dough is formed, cut the dough into 6 equal pieces.

6. On a clean and flat surface, dust some flour and begin to press flatten 1 piece of your naan dough with your fingers/palm or use a rolling pin. Dust with more flour if it sticks to your palms.

7. When your dough is flattened, spray your hot pan with oil (optional, my type of pan needs it).

8. Then, place your flattened naan in the pan. Once the bottom browns, flip the naan.

9. Remove the naan from the pan once both side are browned (about 2 minutes each side).

10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 until all 6 pieces of dough are cooked.

11. If desired, top naan with vegan butter and garlic salt.

12. Serve with curry or other Indian/Indian inspired dishes!

*Notes:

Use a measuring cup if you have a tub of vegan yogurt. You must use plain yogurt and I have not tried this recipe without using a greek style yogurt. Yes, it would work using a dairy greek yogurt, but why use dairy when I just showed you that you can use a vegan version.
