1 1/4
tsp
dry active yeast
1

granulated sugar
2 2/3
cup
bread flour
1
tsp

1/8

1/4
cup

1/4
cup

Instructions:
In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of water, 1/2 the sugar, and yeast. Let it activate for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix together the flour, salt, and sugar.
Mix in the oil, and yogurt until crumbly.
Stir in the yeast mixture, and water until a dough forms.
Place on a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic.
Place into a oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and rest for 1 1/2 hours until doubled in volume.
Divide into 6 even dough balls, and roll until smooth.
Cover with a damp tea towel, and rest for 30-45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to broil and place a pizza stone on the middle rack.
Roll each naan, stretch into a rough triangle, and place on the stone.
Broil for 60-90 seconds until lightly charred on top, then flip over, and repeat.
For an added char finish on an open flame, if desired.
Brush over butter, and serve.
Enjoy!
