Ingredients

  • 1 box (500 g) Loprofin Baking Mix
  • 1 packet (7 g) yeast
  • 2 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup (60 mL) canola oil
  • 2 Tbsp sunflower oil
  • 15 fl oz (450 mL) warm water, approximately

Directions
 

  • Place baking mix into a mixing bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of mix. Whisk together baking mix, yeast, salt, and pepper.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the canola and sunflower oils, and warm water. Add to dry mixture and mix for 1 minute with spoon or electric mixer.
  • Cover weighing scale with plastic wrap. Dust plastic wrap, work surface and hands with the reserved baking mix to prevent sticking.
  • For an average size naan bread, measure and divide dough into pieces of 150 g (5.3 oz).
  • Gently transfer each dough piece from one hand to the other until the mixture is smooth. Shape dough into a long oval shape.
  • Place dough onto a greased baking sheet. Using your hands, gently flatten dough until it resembles a traditional naan shape.
  • Lightly cover dough pieces with oiled plastic wrap and place in a warm area. Let the dough rise until it has doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to broil. Place baking sheet of dough in the oven for about 90 seconds. The dough will puff up and turn slightly brown.
  • Turn naan over and place back in the oven for another minute.
  • Allow naan to cool on wire rack before serving.
