Fake Naan Bread {Easy, Vegan, 5-Minute}

This recipe comes together in mere minutes with everyday ingredients. It does a great job at replicating the chewy, satisfying flavor of naan bread and is perfect for scooping!

I’ll be frank, I know little to naan about naan bread making.

But I am good at improvising! So without having a Tandoor oven or years of experience under my belt, I set out to replicate the chewy, satisfying flavor of naan bread to go with my Easy Orange Curry recipe. I know this may seem goofy but I’ll tell ya’ it was super good to scoop with and really did have that chewy, carby texture that I was looking for.  Make some and see!
