Air Fryer Naan Recipe

Lately, I have been obsessed with Bollywood movies and songs, which has led to my Indian food craving and visits to all the Indian restaurants in town. One of my favorite Indian dishes? NAAN!!! Since I have been all about the air fryer, I wondered how naan in the air fryer would turn out. Spoiler: It turned out freaking delicious!! So, that brings you all this Air Fryer Naan Recipe!

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups warm water

1 TBS sugar

2 tsp active dry yeast

1 tsp salt

3 cups all purpose flour

Optional for garlic naan: garlic powder, black pepper

Directions

Combine warn water, sugar and yeast in a small bowl and let stand for 5 minutes until it creates a foamy. Add salt and flour to the yeast mixture and mix thoroughly in a mixing bowl.  Knead dough on a floured area about 20 times and until a dough ball forms.  Put the soft dough in well oiled bowl, cover with a damp towel, place in a warm place and allow 45 minutes to rise.  Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 8 equal pieces.  Use a rolling pin to flatten to the piece of dough about 1/8 inch thick.  Spray each side with olive oil and cook in the air fryer basket with a cooking time around 6 minutes, flipping after 2-3 minutes on 380 degrees F or until golden brown.  Remember to flip the Naan about halfway through the cooking process and enjoy!

Try with some favorite toppings that include: parmesan cheese, garlic butter, and fresh herbs. Or even make an air fryer naan bread pizza by adding some favorite pizza toppings including pizza sauce (marinara sauce or tomato sauce), italian seasoning, fresh mozzarella cheese, bell peppers, and your favorites meats for those meat lovers out there!
