Vegan Naan

Add the warmed water, active dried yeast, and sugar to a bowl. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes to allow the yeast to activate and bloom.
Next, add the vegan yogurt and olive oil to the mixing bowl and whisk with the yeast mixture.
Then, add in the all-purpose flour, salt, and garlic powder and mix into a thick shaggy dough. I recommend starting with 3 cups flour and adding u to 3 ¼ cups flour as needed.
Once a shaggy dough forms, you will want to knead the dough. If you are using a standing mixer, use the bread hook to knead the dough until it is elastic and no longer sticking to the sides of the bowl (about 5-7 minutes). If you are kneading by hand, add the dough to a well-floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes. The dough is ready when it is smooth and tacky, but not super sticky, and can be easily stretched without tearing.
Form the dough into a round ball and place it into a well-oiled bowl. Then, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a towel and let rise for 1-2 hours or until the dough has proofed and doubled in size.

Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down to remove excess air and remove it from the bowl. Add the dough to a well-floured surface and divide it into 9 evenly sized pieces. Then, roll each section of dough into a round ball.
Cover the dough balls with a cloth or plastic wrap and let them proof a second time for about 15 minutes.
While the dough balls are proofing, melt the vegan butter and mince the garlic. Then, mix together in a small bowl and set aside.
Take the dough balls and use a rolling pin to roll them into ¼-inch thick round discs. Then, lightly grease & heat a cast-iron skillet until it is hot and smoking.
Place one naan dough in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until the underside is deep golden and the surface is bubbly. Then, flip and cook the other side for about 1 minute. You can also brush the naan with the garlic butter mixture at this point or add it right before serving.
Repeat this step with the remaining naan until all are cooked. Then, brush the freshly cooked naan with the remaining melted garlic butter mixture and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve & enjoy!
