Quick Bread Without Yeast

This is a traditional family recipe for a simple bread made without yeast. The bread has a crisp crust and a soft interior. It is best eaten on the day of baking but can also be used the following day.

Ingredients

• 5 cups wheat flour (Triticum aestivum)
• 5 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2–3 cups water (adjust as needed)

Instructions

1. Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl.
2. Add the water gradually and stir until a smooth dough forms. The amount of water may vary depending on the flour.
3. Transfer the dough to a greased loaf pan.
4. Bake at 200°C for 60 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Test with a wooden skewer. The bread is done when the skewer comes out clean.
5. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing.

Serving Suggestion

Serve warm alongside stews, soups, or other main dishes.
