Freshly baked vegan naan bread served beside two bowls of curry

Ingredients

  • 500 gr spelt flour
  • 200 gr coconut yoghurt (or any other plant based yoghurt)
  • 100 ml water
  • 35 ml olive oil
  • 1 Tsp sugar
  • 1/2 cube yeast (or dry yeast)
  • 2 Tsp salt

  2. 2.Add the remaining ingredients and kneed into a smooth dough
  3. 3.Cover and let rise in a bowl for 1-2 hours
  4. 4.Add the dough to a dusted work space and divide into 6-8 pieces
  5. 5.Roll out the pieces very thin
  6. 6.Heat a pan (works best with a cast iron pan), you can add some olive oil, but you don't have to
  7. 7.Fry the flat dough for 2-3 minutes from both sides
  8. 8.Enjoy warm

Notes

Tip from my kitchen: the naan puffs up best when the pan is really hot – then the flatbreads blister beautifully. You can prep the dough ahead and let it rise in the fridge overnight. Any unsweetened plant-based yoghurt works in place of coconut yoghurt. Leftover naan keeps well wrapped for 1 to 2 days and turns soft and warm again in a dry pan; it also freezes well.
