Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Yogurt Naan
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until they are evenly distributed.
  2. Gradually fold in 1 cup of Greek yogurt using a spatula or your hands, mixing until a dough begins to form.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly for about 1-2 minutes, until it feels smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the kneaded dough into a bowl and cover it with a damp kitchen towel. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
  5. After resting, divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Flatten each ball into a disc about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place one naan into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form and the underside is golden brown.
  7. As soon as each naan is cooked, brush it with melted butter or olive oil mixed with fresh garlic or herbs for added flavor.
