Basic Bread Recipe (no yeast)
Ingredients
This is important! Don't make a round ball of dough as it won't cook in the middle.
Notes
CAN I MAKE A VEGAN NO YEAST LOAF?
Absolutely yes! Use your favourite soy or nut milk, and add one tablespoon of lemon juice just before mixing the dough.
CAN I MAKE EMERGENCY NO YEAST BREAD WITH GLUTEN FREE FLOUR?
This recipe doesn’t work with gluten free wheat flour, so I’m afraid not. Sorry! We are working on it though, so watch this space!
I’M OUT OF MILK! WHAT CAN I DO?
You can use a 50:50 mixture of yogurt and water instead. Mix the two well together before adding to the flour. Or you can make up some powdered milk, as per the packet instructions, and use that.
USE WATER INSTEAD OF MILK
If you don’t have milk, yogurt, or milk powder you can make this bread with water and half a tablespoon of vegetable oil, or a knob of melted butter, margarine or baking spread. The milk makes it fluffier, lighter and softer, but at a pinch water and oil will do.
CAN I FREEZE EMERGENCY NO YEAST BREAD?
Yes – this no yeast bread freezes well – I like to slice it, wrap in a plastic bag, freeze, then toast from frozen.
CAN I MAKE EMERGENCY NO YEAST BREAD USING CUP MEASURES?
Yes! Don’t mix cups and metric measurements, but 3 1/3 cups of flour, 10 fl oz of milk and the same amounts of baking powder and salt – 2 tsp and 1 tsp respectively will work.
