Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2 Cups All-Purpose Flour, 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder, ½ Teaspoon Baking Soda, ½ Teaspoon Sea Salt
Stir in the yogurt, warm water, and olive oil. Mix until a soft dough forms.
½ Cup Plain Greek Yogurt, ¼ Cup Water, 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil, Optional toppings: melted butter
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 2-3 minutes until smooth. If the dough feels sticky, sprinkle with a little more flour.
Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten into a circle about 6-8 inches in diameter.
Heat a cast iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Place one piece of dough into the hot skillet and cook until bubbles form, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook the second side for another 1-2 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula for even cooking. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Brush the warm naan with melted butter or garlic butter for extra flavor. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or fresh herbs if desired.
