Gluten-Free Naan / Roti (Indian Flat Bread) - Version #1 image

I haven't tried this but it looks promising. This recipe is adapted from the original which was created by Arvinder Malhotra and published on Celiac.com. When I try it, I will probably post a new version with adjustments (and convert it into American measurement units).

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

150 ml tepid whole milk
275 g rice flour
60 g tapioca flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon gluten free baking powder
2 teaspoons caster sugar
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
150 ml plain yogurt
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
ghee (optional) or olive oil (optional)

Steps:

  • In a bowl mix tepid milk with 1 teaspoon sugar and the yeast, then sit bowl in warm place for 4-5 minutes.
  • Sift the flours, Xanthan gum, salt, baking powder into a bowl or food mixer. Add remaining sugar, oil, yogurt, egg and mix until smooth.
  • Preheat oven to the highest setting. Make dough into 6 equal sized balls. Roll out balls into a tear shape that is ¼ inch thick (use rice flour if necessary to prevent sticking).
  • Preheat a heavy baking tray in oven. Remove tray and put the naan on it. Return to the oven for 3 minutes or until the naan puffs up and turns light brown. Place tray under the broiler 30 seconds to 1 minute for extra browning.
  • Brush with ghee or olive oil before serving.

If you don't have self-raising flour, you can add 1 teaspoon of baking powder to 1 cup of all-purpose flour.

Can I make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it overnight?

I like to brush the naan with melted ghee before serving. It adds a delicious richness and helps keep the bread soft.

The naan was so soft and fluffy, I couldn't resist tearing off a piece and eating it right away. It was the perfect accompaniment to my chicken tikka masala.

If you don't have a skillet, you can also cook the naan on a lightly greased baking sheet in the oven at 450°F for 8-10 minutes per side.

Can I use almond flour instead of chickpea flour? I'm allergic to chickpeas.

I added a teaspoon of minced garlic and a sprinkle of dried oregano to the dough for an extra layer of flavor. It was a hit!

The naan turned out beautifully golden brown and had a wonderful aroma. It was soft and fluffy on the inside, with a slightly crispy crust.

I was a bit skeptical about making gluten-free naan at first, but I was pleasantly surprised. The dough was easy to work with and cooked evenly in my skillet.

This gluten-free naan recipe is a game-changer! The texture was spot-on, with a delightful chewiness and a slightly crispy exterior. It paired perfectly with my homemade chana masala. My family couldn't tell the difference from traditional naan.
