  1. 1

    If the yogurt is cold, heat it for 15 seconds in the microwave. Add ingredients to your bread machine according to the manufacturer's directions.

    After another 5 minutes (10 minutes total in the machine) take the dough out and divide into 8 pieces. Turn each piece in flour, cover, and allow to rest on a tray for 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, heat your oven to 500°F. If you have a pizza stone, allow it to heat in the oven, otherwise, put heat-resistent metal cooling racks in the oven. Baking sheets do not work very well.

  4. 4

    With your fingers, flatten each piece of dough into a tear-drop shape, 1/2 inch thick. Moisten hands, then turn naan briefly in your hands to moisten it, and place it on the stone/rack; bake for about 4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Brown tops using the broiler. Wrap naan in a towel while you make the rest. It shouldn't stick to the pan at all. If it isn't sticky enough, add 1 T water. If it sticks to the pan, add 1 T flour, till you reach the correct consistency.
