Equipment
- Rolling Pin
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 280 g
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt 5 g
- ½ cup warm whole milk 122 g
- ¼ cup full-fat plain yogurt 65 g
- 1 teaspoon cane sugar 4 g
- ¾ cup sourdough discard 189 g - active will also work
- Butter to brush the naan with - optional
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt until combined.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, yogurt, sugar, and sourdough discard until combined.
- Mix in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until incorporated. The dough will be shaggy at first. Roll onto a clean work surface and lightly knead for about 1 minute or just until the dough comes together and is mostly smooth.
- Place into a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a tea towel. Place somewhere warm for about 5-6 hours or until the dough has doubled in size. Check on it at the 4 hour mark.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll them out until they’re about 6” ovals. They don’t need to be perfect.
- Preheat a pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add one of the pieces of rolled out dough and cook for about 60-90 seconds per side.
- Remove from the pan once done and brush with some melted butter if desired. Repeat with the remaining dough.
