I don’t buy bread anymore! No kneading, No eggs, No butter! The easiest and cheapest bread recipe


Ingredients

  • 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups (360ml) warm water
  • 2 tsp instant yeast (or active dry yeast)
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add flour and salt. Stir with a spoon until a sticky dough forms (no kneading needed).
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  4. Once risen, transfer the dough to a greased or parchment-lined loaf pan.
  5. Let it rest for another 20–30 minutes while you preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  6. Bake for 30–35 minutes, until golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
  7. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Would you like me to also make a stovetop version (no oven) for this bread so it’s even easier?
