This recipe worked a treat for me today. It is wholewheat naan bread that is as soft and fluffy as a white naan. It is healthy to eat with curry's,stews, soups or even opened up with a delicious filling added. This Wholewheat Naan Bread Recipe is simple and quick to make so why not give it a try. :)

Stir in your sugar then add enough hot water to warm your milk up.(you won't need much hot water here)

Add your yeast, stir then leave for a few minutes while you prepare your other ingredients.

You should be left with some bran left over.

Do not discard the left over bran. Put it to the side for later.

Add your plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt and stir.

Add your bran and stir.

`
By now your yeast should have fluffed up.



Take another cup and put your yogurt into it with a tiny splash of hot water to warm through the yogurt. Now add your yogurt to your flour. Also Gradually add your yeast mixture and stir well.

You may need to gradually add more flour if it is too sticky. Knead your dough for a few minutes preferably 5 minutes.

Grease your bowl then over and leave for 30 minutes or until your dough has doubled in size. If your room is quite cool make sure you leave it to rise in a warm place.

Once your dough has doubled in size it should feel soft and light and fluffy.

Shape your breads with your hands and place onto a greased and floured baking tray. Put into a hot oven at approx 220C for 10 minutes or until golden.

For a more pita style bread roll out with a rolling pin into a thinner shape.

Crush them with a rolling pin or something heavy.

Melt your butter on a gentle heat.

Mix the cocoa powder into your butter then mix in the digestive crumbs.

You will be left with chocolate crumbs.

Put your crumbs into the cheese cake dish, pat down with a spoon making it even.

Place all your cheese into a bowl.

Sieve in your powdered sugar with vanilla essence and mix well.

Add only a spoon full at a time and keep tasting till it is sweet enough for your taste.

Once mixed you should be left with a thick cream add a few small drops of lemon or lime juice and mix well(do not add too much juice here a few drops will be enough, you want a hint of citrus not a flavour of it).

You should still be left with a thick cream.

Pour in your cheesecake filling on top of the chocolate biscuit mixture.

Spread even with the back of a spoon.

This is a great treat for when you make too much white dough for another dish. It is a real sweet treat! Have fun getting sticky! :)

White Bread Dough

Vanilla Essence

Powdered Sugar

Few Drops Lemon juice

For the Icing

Put a few drops of vanilla essence and lemon juice with a little cold water into a bowl and sieve enough powdered sugar into it to form a thick icing. (you don't need to make this until your bread is cooled)

Sprinkle your dough with sugar and knead in, sprinkle again and knead again.

Your dough should start to come apart a little because of the sugar - this is fine now shape it into a round and put onto a greased and floured baking dish.

Put into a hot oven approx 220C for 15 minutes or so or until golden and cooked. Then leave on a wire rack to cool.

Once cooled spread your icing alover the top, leave the icing to harden a little and enjoy! :)

This was really tasty for a light dinner. Pizza is nice anytime of the year but the peeled peppers really give this pizza it's refreshing summer taste! It is easy and just delightful to eat. Enjoy :)

Place it onto a greased and floured tin.

Add your cheese with a sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
