Gather your required ingredients

In a small bowl, combine the sugar, warm water, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 10 minutes, until foamy.

Mix the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Caputo flour, tapioca starch, and salt.
Add the olive oil, yogurt.

Pour in the activated yeast mixture and mix everything into a smooth dough. Knead by hand or using a stand mixer with a dough hook until soft and elastic.

First Rise
Cover the bowl with a cloth or plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Garlic Butter
While the dough rises, melt the butter in a small pan. Add sliced garlic and sauté until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley. Set aside.
Cook the Naan
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. On a floured surface, roll each piece into an oval or round flatbread, about ½ cm thick

Preheat a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast iron pan over high heat until very hot. Add your first naan.

Cook each naan for 3-4 minutes per side, until bubbles form and dark spots appear. Add a few drops of olive oil if desired.

Finish with Garlic Butter
While hot, brush each naan with the garlic parsley butter. Serve warm.

Recipe Notes
These are best enjoyed fresh, but you can refrigerate cooked naan for 2–3 days and reheat in a dry pan or oven.
