Ingredients

Scale

Low-Carb Naan Bread Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup plain yogurt (preferably full-fat)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt (optional)
  • Cooking oil or butter, for skillet

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir in the plain yogurt and mix until a sticky dough forms. If the dough is too wet, add a little more almond flour until it is manageable but still soft.
  2. Shape the naan: Divide the dough into small equal portions and roll each into a ball. Using your hands or a rolling pin, flatten each ball into thin rounds about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Cook the naan: Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil or butter. Place one dough round in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear and the naan is cooked through. Repeat with remaining dough.
  4. Serve: Serve warm as a side with your favorite dishes, such as curries, salads, or use as a wrap base.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add minced garlic or chopped fresh herbs like cilantro to the dough.
  • Ensure the skillet is hot before cooking each naan to achieve a nice golden crust.
  • Almond flour absorbs moisture differently than wheat flour; dough consistency may vary slightly.
  • This recipe is ideal for gluten-free and low-carb diets.
