4 SUPER EASY NO-YEAST BREADS
This is similar to an Irish Soda bread, but much easier! Imagine it like a biscuit bread because without the yeast, it won't have that chewy texture. However, that doesn't mean you can't have a tender, tasty loaf without the yeast.
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour (I did 2 cups white flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour)
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 2 cups buttermilk (2 cups milk + 2 Tbsp. white vinegar)
- 1/4 cup butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and baking soda. Blend egg and buttermilk together, and add all at once to the flour mixture. Mix just until moistened. Stir in butter. Pour into prepared pan.
- Bake for 65 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the bread comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Wrap in foil for several hours, or overnight, for best flavor.
Notes
VARIATIONS:
Everything Bagel Seasoning: Add 1 Tbsp. Everything Bagel Seasoning to dough and combine. Sprinkle a little more on top before baking.

Cinnamon Raisin: Add 1/4 cup raisins and 1 Tbsp. cinnamon to the dough and combine. Sprinkle the top with cinnamon sugar before baking.
(To make a large batch of this, I tripled the recipe and poured into 4 8.5x4.5 loaf pans. In each pan I added extra add-ins and baked for 45 minutes, or until the toothpick comes out clean)
