The very own Chakki Atta of Pillsbury is a 100% whole wheat grain baking flour that was introduced to the Indian food market in 1998. This Pillsbury flour is mainly used for making the famous Indian flatbreads like chapati, roti, naan, puri, and paratha. The atta flour is high in gluten content – this makes it even more suitable to use for baking bread compared to other all-purpose whole wheat flours. Like any other flour, Chakki Atta flour has been coarsely ground; this is what makes your bread grainier as well as when you are using it for making biscuits, baking cake, and other types of bread.

Whole Wheat Naan Ingredients 2 cups of Pillsbury Chakki Atta whole wheat flour 1 ½ teaspoon of active dry yeast 1 teaspoon of sugar ¾ cup of water (lukewarm only) 2 tablespoons of curd (yoghurt) Salt to taste Procedure/s For your whole-wheat naan, combine flour, activated yeast (with the sugar and water), and salt in a mixing bowl. Then, add the yoghurt and lukewarm water gradually until the batter is ready for kneading. Knead well for 5 minutes to create a good texture once your naan is done cooking. Make the dough into a round dome and cover with a clean cloth, let it proof for 1 to 2 hours, or until the size of the dough has doubled. After proofing, punch down the dough to release the air inside and knead again for about 2 minutes. Divide your dough into about 6 or 8 equal portions and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. (This is the second proofing phase.) Dust more flour on the surface where you will roll out your dough. Flatten each portion in oval or round shapes (be careful not to make it very thin). On your skillet, over medium heat, place your dough and cook both sides. This will produce some brown spots and your naan will have air pockets that will puff up. You can also choose to finish it directly over a flame, once it gets partially cooked in the skillet. Once done, brush up your naan with some butter and serve warm with your choice of dish.
