Whole Wheat Naan
- 1/2 cups Stone Ground Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/2 cups Unbleached Bread Flour
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 Tablespoons Instant Yeast Or Highly Active Yeast
- 2 Tablespoons Lukewarm Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1/8 teaspoons Sugar
- 1/2 Tablespoons Ground Flaxseed
- 2-1/2 Tablespoons Water, Divided, Or More As Needed
- 1/2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Plain, Non-fat Greek Yogurt
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Butter And Garlic (optional)
- Sift or whisk together the flours and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the yeast, warm milk, and sugar. (If you are using cow's milk, omit the sugar.) Set aside this bowl for 15 minutes. After that amount of time, the yeast should have at least tripled in size.
- Combine the flaxseed with 1 1/2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Stir mixture to remove any lumps.
- Once yeast has risen, combine the yeast mixture, oil, yogurt, and flaxseed mixture, and 1 tablespoon of water with the flour. Combine together with your hands. If the dough is too dry, add water 1 tablespoon at a time, until a soft dough has formed.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead on the counter for 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth. If dough gets too sticky, knead in more flour. Ideally, the dough should be soft and tacky, but not sticky.
- After kneading, shape the dough into a round ball and set in a lightly oiled bowl covered with plastic wrap. Set aside for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until dough has doubled in size.
- Turn out dough back onto a floured surface and briefly knead for about 2 minutes. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces and flatten out into oblong, or naan-shaped pieces.
- Preheat the boiler to its highest setting and place a baking sheet covered with foil in the oven to preheat.
- Once preheated, place the dough on the baking sheet and bake for 3-4 minutes, until browned and slightly puffed.
- Brush with a little butter and/or finely chopped garlic while hot, and enjoy!
