Easy Mint Garlic Naan
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup warm unsweetened plant milk
- 2.5-3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons oil for dough
- oil or plant butter to grease skillet surface
- 1.5 teaspoons instant dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 cup plant yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
Mint-garlic butter
- 4 tablespoons softened plant butter
- salt to taste
- fresh or dried mint as needed
- 3 cloves crushed garlic
Preparation
Combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl, then whisk to combine and set aside for 10 minutes.
Once the yeast is foamy, add oil, yogurt, salt, and flour, and gently bring the ingredients together with a spoon or clean hands.
Continue combining by kneading until roughly together, then transfer to a floured surface and knead well for about 10 minutes until smooth and soft (not sticky); you may use a stand mixer if available.
Cover the dough with a clean towel.
Let the dough rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
Once doubled, cut the dough into 6 equal pieces.
Roll out each piece using a rolling pin to flatten them; cover with a kitchen towel while preheating the skillet.
Heat a large skillet or non-stick pan to medium heat, preferably cast iron, and brush with a little oil or non-dairy butter.
Place a flatbread in the heated, greased skillet and cook until the flatbread is drying out, especially at the edges, about 2 minutes.
Flip the flatbread and cook the other side until browned and puffed, about 1-2 minutes more
Mix the mint-garlic butter ingredients together to prepare the topping
Brush the cooked naan with the mint-garlic butter and serve
