Steps:
- In a bowl mix tepid milk with 1 teaspoon sugar and the yeast, then sit bowl in warm place for 4-5 minutes.
- Sift the flours, Xanthan gum, salt, baking powder into a bowl or food mixer. Add remaining sugar, oil, yogurt, egg and mix until smooth.
- Preheat oven to the highest setting. Make dough into 6 equal sized balls. Roll out balls into a tear shape that is ¼ inch thick (use rice flour if necessary to prevent sticking).
- Preheat a heavy baking tray in oven. Remove tray and put the naan on it. Return to the oven for 3 minutes or until the naan puffs up and turns light brown. Place tray under the broiler 30 seconds to 1 minute for extra browning.
- Brush with ghee or olive oil before serving.
GLUTEN FREE NAAN (INDIAN FLAT BREAD)
Steps:
- Mix all ingredients well until dough is formed. Let site for ½ - 2 hours. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add salt and a little garlic to pan. Roll a small amount of dough into a ball, then flatten into a disk. Set in pan atop salt and garlic. Cook 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown in color.
Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help ensure the dough comes together smoothly.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more almond flour. If it's too dry, add a little more water.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the naan tough.
- Cook the naan over medium-high heat. This will help create a nice char on the outside while keeping the inside soft and fluffy.
- Serve the naan immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, garlic, cilantro, and yogurt.
Conclusion:
Gluten-free naan is a delicious and easy-to-make flatbread that can be enjoyed by people with and without gluten sensitivities.
