Bourbon naan bread served

Bourbon Naan

The special character of bourbon whiskey is not only valid in the form of a drink, but can also be an excellent raw material for sweet fillings. The bourbon mixed with brown sugar gives this naan specialty a slight alcoholic aroma. During baking, the alcohol evaporates, leaving only the caramel-spicy flavor in the dough. The naan is slightly crispy on the outside, soft and juicy on the inside, and the filling has a slightly melting consistency. Tip: You can prepare the bourbon mixture in advance and even enrich it with vanilla if you want an even more complex flavor. Always press the dough well after filling so that it does not leak out during baking. This naan is excellent for special occasions, as a dessert after dinner or as an adult-friendly snack - it is most delicious when warm!

    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. This forms the base for the naan dough.

    2

    Add the yogurt, lukewarm water, and olive oil. Knead until you have a smooth and elastic dough, about 10 minutes of hand kneading.

    3

    Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

    4

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the bourbon whiskey with the brown sugar and heat slightly until the sugar dissolves. Do not boil; it should just be lukewarm.

    5

    Divide the risen dough into 6 equal portions. Shape them into balls and roll them out into oval shapes.

    6

    Spread one half of each naan with the bourbon mixture, fold the other half over, press gently, and then lightly roll it out again.

    7

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the naans for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear.

    8

    While still hot, brush the naans with melted butter to make them shinier and softer.

    9

    Serve immediately. The spicy, warm flavor of bourbon perfectly complements the caramel sweetness of brown sugar.

    Tip: Don't put the bourbon mixture on the dough too hot, otherwise it will soak it. Use it lukewarm and dose it carefully.
