Instructions

In a stand mixer bowl, combine warm water, honey, and yeast; let sit until bubbly (5–10 minutes). Add warm milk, Greek yogurt, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until combined.
Shape the dough into a ball and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.
For the filling, mix thawed spinach with herbs, mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes in a bowl.
Divide risen dough into 8 balls and flatten each ball into discs. Place filling in the center of each disc and fold to seal.
Cook each naan in a preheated cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown on both sides.
