Avocado Stuffed Naan

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Side Dishes
The creamy texture and high oil content of avocado shine not just in guacamole, but when cooked too. In this recipe, avocado acts like a rich butter cream inside the dough: heat makes it even softer, almost melting into the naan interior. Lemon juice acidity balances the richness, resulting in a fresh yet filling flatbread that stands well on its own.

Instructions

1 ✓

Mix flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add yogurt, 2 tablespoons oil, and water. Knead into smooth, elastic dough.

Tip: Kneading puts energy into the system, aligning protein chains (gluten). This makes dough stretchable.
2 ✓

Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes until doubled.

Tip: A draft-free, warm spot (75-85°F) is optimal for yeast reproduction.
3 ✓

Pit avocado, scoop out flesh, and mash with a fork. Immediately mix with lemon juice and a pinch of salt.

Tip: Ascorbic acid in lemon juice acts as an antioxidant, slowing oxidation (browning).
4 ✓

Divide dough into 6 parts, flatten. Mound avocado cream in center, seal into a ball, then carefully roll out.

Tip: Always roll filled dough from center outwards with gentle pressure so filling spreads evenly.
5 ✓

Cook in hot, dry skillet for 2-3 minutes per side until blistered. Brush with melted butter at the end.

Tip: Butter gives shine and enhances flavors.

Recipe FAQ

Does the avocado turn brown in the dough?
Lemon juice and heat help preserve color, but slight browning is natural. It doesn't affect taste.
Can I use hard avocado?
Not recommended. Hard avocado stays chunky during cooking and won't melt into the dough. Choose only ripe, soft ones.
