Garlic powder is easier to use and store.

Start by adding 2 cups of all-purpose flour to a mixer.

Add 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour.

Using the whisk attachment, whisk all the ingredients together until combined.

Remove the whisk attachment and attach the dough hook.

Add 1 cup of zero fat Greek yogurt to the mixture.

Turn the mixer on to medium speed and mix until a dough ball forms, then continue mixing for 1 more minute.

Knead the dough by hand for 3 minutes on a floured surface.

Set the dough aside to rest for 10 minutes.

In a bowl, pour in 1/4 cup of olive oil.

Mince 4 large garlic cloves into a paste and add to the olive oil.

Chop a small handful of fresh Italian parsley and mix it into the garlic oil.

After resting, divide the dough into 6 equal pieces, each about 1/3 cup.

Roll each piece into an oblong shape, about 1/4 inch thick, ensuring it's not paper thin.

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Add a tiny splash (about 1/2 teaspoon) of olive oil to the skillet.

Place the first naan in the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Flip the naan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, checking for doneness.

Repeat the cooking process for the remaining naans.
