Preparation

For this easy to prepare recipe for yeast free bread, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat the baking pan with butter, and then dust it with a little flour. Place the cornmeal, salt and shortening in a large container, and sift this mixture three times. Now add a little bit of boiling water, and stir till you have a smooth batter, ensuring no lumps form. Break the egg, mix it and fold it into the batter. Next, add the baking powder and continue to stir. Now pour the mixture into the baking pan and bake for 20 minutes at the same temperature. If a knife put in the center comes out clean, then your bread is done. If not, bake for another 5 minutes. Cool the loaf of bread on a baking tray and serve.

  • carbonated lemon-lime soda, 1½ oz can
  • white sugar, 3 tbsps

Stir well, till you have a batter with no lumps. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and bake it for about 45 minutes. If you feel the need to, you can check the bread while it's baking, by inserting a knife into the center of the dish. When it comes out clean, your bread is ready. Cool and slice.

Yeast Free Bread - Recipe 3 (Dairy Free)

Ingredients
  • whole grain flour, 3 cups (ideally organic)
  • sea salt, ¼ or ½ tsp
  • distilled/purified water, 2½ cups (600 ml)
  • olive oil, 1 tbsp
  • baking powder, 1 tbsp (non-aluminum)
Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9x5 or 9x9 inch loaf pan with butter, and then dust it with a little flour. Alternatively, you could line the pan with parchment paper. Take a mixing bowl, into which add the flour, sea salt, and baking powder. Sift this mixture two times. In another bowl, mix together the water and olive oil. Add the liquid to the flour mixture and stir till all lumps are dissolved. Pour into prepared pan and place in the middle rack in the oven. Bake for between 50 to 55 minutes. If you feel the need to, you can check the bread while it's baking, by inserting a baker's pick into the center of the dish. When it comes out clean, your bread is ready. The bread should also have a golden brown crust. Let it cool completely on the rack (½ hour or more), before you cut it.

Note 1: You could use flour such as whole wheat, barley, rye, oat, spelt, kamut, and etc.
Note 2: Non-glutenous flours such as rice, millet, buckwheat, amaranth, corn, potato, etc., do not hold together by themselves. So the addition of glutenous flour(s) or a binding agent such as egg will be required.

While this is a hard time, these yeast free bread recipes will provide bread you can have along with your breakfast and other meals.
