Ingredients

You don’t need fancy stuff — just these basics!

1 1/2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend (ensure it contains xanthan gum)
1 cup Plain Greek Yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
Optional: Melted butter and fresh parsley for brushing

Directions

In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour and baking powder.
Scoop the Greek yogurt into the bowl and stir with a sturdy spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a surface dusted with gluten-free flour. Gently fold and press for about one minute until soft.
Divide the dough into 4-6 even balls and flatten them to 1/4 inch thickness using your palm or a rolling pin.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each naan for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden-brown spots appear.
Remove from heat and immediately brush with melted butter and fresh herbs if desired.
