I finally stepped out of my comfort zone.
I resolved to make more bread this year, and first on the list was this incredible naan. As you can see, I topped it with boatloads of melted butter. I haven’t been the same since. Head on over to The Pioneer Woman’s Tasty Kitchen for a step by step recipe on how to make it. I promise it is so easy, you won’t ever buy naan again!

I’m impressed! I’ve always wanted to try making homemade naan, but have been timid. Now, you’ve inspired me- I’m gonna give it a try. Thanks for being so brave!

I love naan, especially when it’s stuffed with cheese then soaked in butter. Yours looks perfect, did you invest in a tandoori oven? :)

Looks amazing!!! Bread making scares me too.. but I need to step out of my comfort zone like you because it smells oh so good!

I agree–homemade Naan is super tasty! I made it for the first time this past summer :-)

I love to make my own bread, I haven’t made naan in so long…I think it’s time!

I love naan! especially when they bake spices in the bread. Or chives. Chives are good. :-)

I’ve never even tried naan. I know, I’m pathetic.
Your naan looks great!

Okay yum! I am going to look this one up! I love bread. I love eating it but I really like making it! Have you tried making sprouted grain bread? I have made it once. I want to make it again!!!

Homemade bread is the best! I’ve actually never had naan (mostly because I’ve only had bad experiences with Indian food). Maybe I’m ready for a homemade version!
Reply
Yea! I love naan :) with butter…even better!!

Oh. My. Goodness. I must go make naan right now!! I was so excited when we moved into our new house that the stove-top is smooth fiberglass (so easy to clean, I can’t be bothered with removing burners to clean my stove!), but now I wish a had some good flame-age! Think a small pastry torch would work to brown the ‘rough’ side?? That’s my favorite part!

Oh, I’ve been wanting to make homemade naan for a while! Thanks for the recipe link!

I totally made naan last week. It rocks!

I can’t wait to try this, it looks amazing!

Yum! Naan has been on my list of things to make for a while now, my Mom recently got back from a trip to India and has been begging me to make it. yours looks amazing!

I’m really impressed–it looks like what you’d get at an Indian restaurant!

I think I ate naan every.single.day on our cruise! Love that stuff!

Those of you going crazy over Naan obviously haven’t been deployed to Afghanistan for a year. We had to eat this bread every meal with only white rice and some goat meat. I do have to admit that at first it was delicious so I do understand why you enjoy it.

This is perfect timing, we are going to do a “build your own” pizza party soon and I was thinking naan bread would be the perfect little personal pizza size but I haven’t found a recipe that didn’t completely intimidate me yet! That one looks doable!

yay for homemade naan! As soon as I saw this post this morning I was excited–I’ve yet to try my hand at naan, although I’ve come close by making flatbread. Isn’t it the best?! In addition to the melted butter, I recommend adding a smear of roasted garlic as well :)
Reply
Yaaaay! I’ve been looking for a good flatbread recipe!!!! Will definitely be trying this one out soon!

My wife and I love naan, but can hardly ever find it near where we are currently living. Now I have the recipe and will muster up the courage to try my hand at making naan on my own, thanks so much for this!

I love, love, love homemade naan. I follow this recipe : http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Naan/Detail.aspx
and it has served me well so many times in the past. We add tons of minced garlic, which really takes the naan to the next level.
