Sourdough Naan
- 1 cup unfed sourdough starter (straight from the fridge)
- 1/2 cup warm milk (I used 2%)
- 1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 cups white whole wheat flour
- Pinch Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- Garlic herb seasoning (or your favorite herbs/spices)
- Combine the sourdough starter, milk, and yogurt in a mixing bowl. Whisk together until smooth.
- Add the baking powder and the whole wheat flour. Stir to combine, just until the dough comes together. It will be somewhat sticky. Cover with a damp cloth and let the dough rest in a warm place for 2 – 3 hours.
- Once the dough has rested (and risen just a bit, but don’t expect it to double like a typical bread recipe), transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth, for a minute or two, adding only enough flour to keep the dough from sticking to your hands.
- Preheat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece out to about 1/4-inch thickness. Brush the dough with water and place it water-side down in the skillet. Cover and cook for about a minute until the dough bubbles and releases easily from the skillet. Flip, cover, and cook for an additional 30 seconds to one minute. Transfer the flatbread to a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough.
- When ready to serve, brush the flatbread with melted butter and sprinkle with seasonings. Toast under the broiler (on low) for a minute or two until the bread is toasty.
