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.
