Sourdough Naan
This easy sourdough naan recipe yields soft and fluffy flatbreads with a subtle tang, perfect for complementing any meal. Makes 8 servings.
Ingredients
- ½ cup sourdough discard
- 2 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup yogurt plain
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 ½ tsp salt
Optional Garnish
- Olive oil or melted butter
- parsley
- flaky salt
Instructions
- Mix Wet Ingredients. Combine the sourdough discard, milk, yogurt, and oil in a large mixing bowl.
- Add Dry Ingredients. Next, add the flour and salt.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix all of the ingredients together so they are well combined. If you are having trouble incorporating the rest of the flour, turn the dough onto a clean, dry surface and knead the rest in.
- Prepare Dough for Rising. Turn the dough onto a clean, dry surface if you haven’t already done so. Lightly spray a bowl with baking spray, and place the dough in the lightly greased bowl.
- Let the Dough Rise. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow it to sit at room temperature until it doubles in size, about 8-12 hours (or overnight).
- Divide the Dough. Once your dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto a clean, dry surface and divide it into 8 equal portions.
- Let the Dough Rest. Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the Dough. Dust your surface with a small amount of flour (to prevent the dough from sticking), and using a rolling pin, roll out the dough so it is about ¼ inches thick. Transfer to a lightly floured surface or a parchment-lined baking sheet and set aside.
- Cook the Dough. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and allow it to come to temperature. Place a rolled-out dough naan in the warmed skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until bubbles start to form and the dough is browning.
- Garnish Naan (Optional). Brush the top of the naan with olive oil or melted butter. Sprinkle it with some flaky salt and parsley.
