Quick Naan (Bread Machine)

Recipe #254744 | 40 min | 10 min prep | add private note

This naan is ready in 40 minutes! I like this recipe better than Easy Naan (Bread Machine). For best results, follow directions carefully. They seem long but aren't, I am just describing what I saw on TV exactly. UPDATE: Made this with sour cream instead of yogurt. Much, much better!!

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    If the yogurt is cold, heat it for 15 seconds in the microwave.
  2. 2
    Add ingredients to your bread machine according to the manufacturer's directions.
  3. 3
    After 5 minutes, check your dough (see NOTE).
  4. 4
    After another 5 minutes (10 minutes total in the machine) take the dough out and divide into 8 pieces. Turn each piece in flour, cover, and allow to rest on a tray for 20 minutes.
  5. 5
    Meanwhile, heat your oven to 500°F.
  6. 6
    If you have a pizza stone, allow it to heat in the oven, otherwise, put heat-resistent metal cooling racks in the oven. Baking sheets do not work very well.
  7. 7
    With your fingers, flatten each piece of dough into a tear-drop shape, 1/2 inch thick.
  8. 8
    Moisten hands, then turn naan briefly in your hands to moisten it, and place it on the stone/rack; bake for about 4 minutes.
  9. 9
    Brown tops using the broiler.
  10. 10
    Wrap naan in a towel while you make the rest.
  11. 11
    NOTE: Dough should be somewhat sticky, and you might get a small amount stuck to your finger. It shouldn't stick to the pan at all. If it isn't sticky enough, add 1 T water. If it sticks to the pan, add 1 T flour, till you reach the correct consistency.

This naan was pretty good. I didn't pay attention to the dough initially (despite your warning!) and had to add a bit of flour once out of the machine. I subbed sour cream, based on what I had and just made on the stove with my cast iron. Once cooked, I put butter over the top and sprinkled with a bit of salt, which really enhanced the flavor a lot. Went well with our meal. Thanks for posting!

    This came out great! Thank you so much for posting this! I too used the sour cream (full fat) instead of the yogurt and I wouldn't change a thing. Thanks!

    Still searching for the perfect naan, but this is closer than others I've tried. Tried both iron skillet on stovetop and baking stone in oven; preferred iron skillet.
