Ah, a 4-ingredient bread—super simple, minimal fuss, and surprisingly tasty! This is perfect if you want homemade bread without yeast or fancy ingredients. Here’s a straightforward recipe:
4-Ingredient Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups (250 g) self-rising flour
- 1 cup (240 ml) plain yogurt (or Greek yogurt)
- 1 large egg
- 1–2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter (optional, for moisture and flavor)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2: Mix Ingredients
- In a bowl, combine self-rising flour and yogurt.
- Add the egg (and olive oil or butter, if using).
- Stir until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
Step 3: Shape and Bake
- Transfer the dough to the prepared pan. Smooth the top.
- Bake 35–40 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 4: Cool and Serve
- Let bread cool 10–15 minutes before slicing.
- Enjoy plain, toasted, or with butter and jam.
💡 Tips for 4-Ingredient Bread:
- You can mix in herbs, garlic powder, or cheese for extra flavor.
- If you want a crustier top, brush lightly with olive oil before baking.
- Works well as quick sandwich bread or as a base for garlic bread.
If you want, I can give a slightly different 4-ingredient bread version with no oven required—it’s cooked on the stovetop in under 20 minutes.
Do you want me to show that stovetop version?
