http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56M87tIq45g

It’s wonderful what so much time on hand can make us do. Apart from the negative aspects of this lockdown, I have to admit, there are also many positives. Who would have ever thought that anyone would have the opportunity to be in such a time that just stops everything that is happening around them and in the world and gives them the chance to reflect on their lives. They say the world never stops, but this time it has. I’m using this time to do lots of things, one being adhering to your request and making things you want me to. This is why I’m finally sharing a no-yeast instant bread recipe today!

I think we are all mesmerized by bread. I mean why wouldn’t one be? It’s such a delicious treat that can be enjoyed in more than a million ways and it is made with the most basic ingredients that one can think of. Making bread however, is a time consuming process. It requires patience and care. That is why I don’t see a lot of people making bread at home and understandably so! But you don’t have to worry because if you’ve always loved bread but are scared of or lazy to make it, I have got you covered with my no-yeast instant bread recipe!

What is a No-Yeast Instant Bread Recipe

Technically speaking, a no-yeast instant bread is called Irish Soda Bread. The Irish Soda Bread, or as I like to call it, the no-yeast instant bread is basically a bread that comes together very quickly and does not require any yeast.

The texture of the no-yeast instant bread is slightly different from the commercial breads that we are used to eating. But just because it is different, doesn’t mean it is not amazing. It is slightly dense, but yet it is soft. My favorite part is the amazing crusty exterior that is just, to die for!

Ingredients for the No-Yeast Instant Bread

Now here is the best part, the ingredients. I am sure you have these ingredients on hand already because that’s how basic this recipe is. It is perfect for any and every household.

As the name suggests, this recipe has no yeast. So you don’t need to worry about rushing to the market and getting the same. No yeast means no need for proofing your dough. This is what saves on hours of your time.

For the texture of this bread, we’re going to be using buttermilk. Now again, buttermilk is nothing but a combination of milk and vinegar. If you do not have vinegar, you can also use lemon juice instead. I love using buttermilk in my recipes. It gives such a nice texture to everything and it is so easy to make.

Another great part of this recipe is that I am using half parts of whole wheat flour (aata), and half parts of all purpose flour (maida) in this recipe. This makes this recipe slightly healthier than the ones that only make use of all purpose flour. This is also important for other reasons, but we’ll get back to that later.

Apart from this, all you need is some melted butter, a leavening agent that is baking soda here and some sugar.

Importance of using both wheat and all purpose flour

Now I know what you are thinking, can’t I just use whole wheat flour and try to keep it healthy? I would not recommend using just whole wheat because this bread is already slightly dense. If you choose to completely opt out of using all purpose flour, then your bread will be extremely dense and it won’t be nice to eat.

Things to keep in mind while making no-yeast instant bread

In comparison to making bread the traditional way, a no-yeast instant bread is very easy to make. But as always, there are some things you need to take care of:
