Gluten-Free No Yeast 30 Minute Naan

Instructions

1. Combine flaxseed meal and 2 tbsp water in a small bowl and set aside. Skip this step if using an egg.

2. Meanwhile, in another medium bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients.

3. Add the yogurt and oil to the flaxseed mixture (or egg) and stir to combine.

4. Add the yogurt mixture to the dry ingredients, kneading the dough as you go. Then add the warm water, bit by bit, as needed, making sure it is well absorbed before adding more. Depending on how watery your yogurt is or if you used an egg, you may not need water at all.

5. Knead for a couple of minutes until the dough is well combined and soft. Cover and set aside for 15 minutes.

6. Divide the dough into 6 balls. You can do this by rolling the dough into a log shape and then slicing it into 6 pieces. Or you can take pieces of dough and roll them into balls. You can either keep these round or form into a teardrop shape by rolling one end of the dough between your hands.

7. To roll out the naan, use a combination of rolling out the dough with a rolling pin and gently pressing it with your hands. It should be around 5-6 inches long and 1/4 inch thick. Use a little rice flour or other gluten-free if the dough is sticky. Press in the edges gently to make them smoother.

8. Heat a tava, griddle or non-stick (preferably cast iron) pan over high heat. Have butter/ghee and rice flour or other gluten-free flour nearby.

9. Once you've rolled out the naan, sprinkle them with nigella seeds (kalonji) and lightly press the seeds so that they stick to the dough. (You can also do this after placing the naan is on the skillet.)
