Super Easy Naan Bread

My usual naan recipe calls for milk and an egg, but since I had neither in the house tonight, I improvised. This is a super simple 5-ingredient naan bread and it came out great!

• Ready In: 55 mins
• Serves: 8
• Yields: 8 pieces

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 cups warm water
• 1  tablespoon sugar
• 2  teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 3  cups flour, plus a few tbsp for workspace

Directions

1. Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Add salt and flour. Mix thoroughly. Knead dough on a floured workspace about 20 times and form into a tight ball. Put dough in a well oiled bowl and cover with a damp towel.
3. Put in a warm place to rise for 30-45 minutes. Dough won't rise much, but it doesn't need to.
4. Turn dough out onto a floured workspace. Divide dough into 8 pieces and roll out with a rolling pin to about 1/8" thick.
5. Grill naan pieces on a grill or electric griddle. In a pinch, a frying pan sprayed with some nonstick cooking spray will work. Grill for 1-2 minutes on each side.
6. This recipe yields a very soft, chewey naan. Just the way I like it!
