Best Healthy Vegan Indian Naan (Or Garlic Naan) Bread! Recipe #258001
Most healthier naan recipes didn't taste as good to us as the recipes that included oil and dairy. So, we came up with this yummy and healthier alternative that amazingly still has no added oil or dairy! Like most naan recipes it is time consuming, but we love Indian food and can't seem to eat it without the naan. Add the garlic to turn the plain naan into garlic naan (our favorite). We use our recipe Recipe #247817 for the vegan sour cream, but you can also find it in grocery or health food stores.
