Skillet Naan Bread (No Yeast)

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

This no-yeast naan bread is a quick way to get fluffy, restaurant-quality flatbreads on your table—yogurt keeps the dough tender while a cast-iron skillet gets those signature bubbles going. The biggest time commitment is letting the dough rest for 2–3 hours, but once that's done, you're cooking individual naans in just a couple of minutes each. Finishing them with fragrant garlic-coriander butter makes them the perfect companion to any curry.
