Instant Whole Wheat Naan Without Yeast

Whole wheat Naan recipe 

 

whole wheat naan recipe

 

Whole wheat naan is the delicious, soft and puffy naan recipe made with whole wheat flour. I have already posted the butter naan recipe but many readers requested to show the healthier version of naan with whole wheat flour.

At home I usually prefer to use only whole wheat flour, however I got the best result when I used 1:2 ratio of all purpose flour to wheat flour.

Also this recipe of whole wheat naan is yeast free recipe. For fermentation I used home made sour yogurt. This recipe is an instant version. Only 15 minutes resting time is required for fermentation. Also I have prepared these easy naan on stove top instead of oven.

If you are in hurry and don’t want to buy ready made naan, this recipe is best to try.

Hope you will like it. Let’s see the recipe now.

Step 4. When ready to cook, divide the dough into 8 -9 equal balls and press them lightly to make small discs. Take one disc, sprinkle some nigella seeds or sesame seeds on top and start rolling into oval shape. While rolling naan, make sure that you don’t press too much else it will not puff very well.

Note- Don’t forget to cover the rest of the dough else it will dry out.
