Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons milk of choice
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- Optional chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and milk. Heat in 20 to 30 second intervals, stirring between each interval until fully melted and smooth.
- Allow the cheese mixture to cool slightly for about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the melted cheese mixture to a large bowl. Add almond flour, baking powder, and eggs. Mix thoroughly until a thick dough forms.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each into an oval or circle resembling naan bread.
- Place the shaped dough onto the prepared baking tray.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.
- While the naan bakes, mix melted butter with minced garlic.
- Remove the naan from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Brush generously with garlic butter and garnish with parsley if desired.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Do not overheat the cheese or the dough may become sticky.
- Sunflower seed flour can be used instead of almond flour.
- This naan can also be cooked in a skillet over low heat.
- Freeze cooled naan with parchment paper between each piece for easy storage.
- Reheat gently before serving to maintain softness.
