Yeast-Free Life - Alternative To Expensive Yeast-Free Bread

By Matt Bournston

If you have recently tried to follow a yeast-free diet, you have probably realized that a lot of yeast-free bread's are expensive. So, what cheaper alternatives are there?

Well, my advice to you would be to ditch those expensive shop-bought yeast free breads and bake your own yeast free bread at home. Not only will you be able to make it just how you like it, you will also be able to eat it straight from the oven while it's still nice and warm.

Check out this great yeast free bread recipe.

You Will Need:

* Lard or olive oil, for greasing

* 1 level teaspoon of salt

* 9oz/250g of plain flour

* 225ml/8fl oz buttermilk or live yoghurt

* 2 teaspoons of soft brown sugar

* 1 level tsp bicarbonate soda

How to Make the Yeast-free Bread:

1. Pre-heat your oven to 445F/230C. Grease a baking sheet with the lard or oil.

2. Sift the soda, salt and flour into your mixing bowl, and then add the sugar.

3. Mix the yoghurt or buttermilk into the mixture with a wooden spoon, and then kneed into a dough using your hands until it becomes firm and soft. If you think it feels too wet or sticky, simply add more flour to the mixture.

4. Lightly kneed the dough in the bowl for approximately 30 seconds, until it's smooth, and then shape it into a ball, making it as deep as possible. Put onto the greased baking sheet, and cut a deep X in top with a knife. This lets the bread to expand as the soda begins to work.

5. Place the dough into the oven and cook for approximately 12 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 200C/400F and bake for a further 15 to 20 minutes. Once it's ready, the bottom of the bread should sound hollow when tapped.

6. Allow the bread to cool for 15 minutes before serving. - 17273
