I love a curry but I am always craving a good naan bread to mop up the leftover sauce. Sadly most store bought naan breads are pretty high in calories so I set about trying to create the ultimate Slimming friendly naan bread.
Let me just say… if you are lucky enough to be able to find any flour during this crazy time we are living in (covid 2020) good on you! Crack on and make this delicious recipe! For those of you who literally cannot find a bag of flour anywhere you may need to wait a little longer before you can sample.
WHY IS THIS THE BEST HEALTHY NAAN BREAD?
- Quick
- Easy
- Cheap
- Low Syn*
- Low in Calories
- Delicious
- Freezable
CAN I FREEZE AND REHEAT THESE NAAN BREAD?
Yes absolutely! Allow to cook and freeze for up to 1 month. Defrost throroughly and warm through in the oven before devouring.
We estimate that the recipe is worth 32 Syns and it will make approx. 10 mini naan bread. You are welcome to make larger or smaller naan but remember to Syn accordingly.
All you need now is the perfect curry to serve alongside….
TIP: THESE MAKE AMAZING PIZZA BASES TOO!

I’m 6 weeks in with slimming world and your page has been a blessing. Made these naan breads tonight and wow!! What a revelation. Had my doubts but even my hubby loved them. Thankyou
i made these last night to accompany a SW veg curry ! omg amazing ! so easy so tasty and defo will now never buy a supermarket naan again !! thank you for this recipe 🙂
Can you re-warm them in a toaster?
I haven’t tried it but i don’t see why not 🙂
Can they be frozen
Yes 🙂 this information can be found in the post.
Made these both myself and my husband thoroughly enjoyed them, I added a crushed fresh garlic clove in with mine. I will definitely be making them again ?
Have you ever tried to make this using fromais frais? I would live to make these to have with a curry tonight but only have fromais frais in the fridge ?
Hi there
I haven’t but hey it’s always worth experimenting x
Made these before really tasty going to make again even hubby liked them x
These are lovely, I added black onion seeds to mine, delicious!
I have made these twice now, they are lovely, done the usual garlic and coriander, and frozen some and used them, they’re great, I forgot to eat them with my curry one evening, so I used them with soup for my lunch the next day, a good alternative to bread or not having anything. 🙂
I know those comments were from ages ago but I actually tried these with fat free fromage frais tonight, they were soooo good. I think I actually preferred then to when I used yogurt.
Hopefully this helps anyone wondering the same thing in the future ?
I dont normally eat Naan bread with my curry unless I am in a restaurant but will certainly give these ago
