Ingredients

• 2.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Low-fat yogurt
• 0.5 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together low-fat yogurt, warm water, olive oil, and honey until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.

Step 4

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.

Step 7

Using a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a naan shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Step 8

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic to the skillet.

Step 9

Cook each naan for about 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

Step 10

Once each naan is cooked, place it on a plate and brush with a little more olive oil if desired.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.
