Ingredients

• 250 grams Whole wheat flour
• 100 grams Plain yogurt
• 60 milliliters Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cloves Minced garlic (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.

Step 2

Add the plain yogurt and warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until a dough begins to form.

Step 3

Add olive oil, and continue to knead the dough with your hands for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 30 minutes at room temperature to allow the dough to relax. This will make it easier to roll out.

Step 5

After resting, divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.

Step 6

Lightly flour a clean work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll out each dough ball into an oval or circular shape, around 5-6 inches in diameter and about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 7

Optional: If you want garlic or cilantro naan, sprinkle some minced garlic or chopped cilantro on one side of the rolled-out dough and gently press it in with the rolling pin.

Step 8

Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until hot.

Step 9

Place one rolled-out naan onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 10

Flip the naan and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes, until it is golden brown and evenly cooked.

Step 11

Remove from the skillet and keep warm by wrapping in a clean kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Step 12

Serve warm with your favorite dishes.
