Ingredients:
1 ½ cups self-rising flour
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, put together self-rising flour and Greek yogurt.
Stir until dough forms.
Move dough to floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until it is smooth.
Make sure that the dough takes loaf form and place on the prepared sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until it turns golden in color.
Take out from the oven once baked. Allow cooling slightly before cutting into slices for serving.
Tips for Success
Choosing the Right Flour: Go for self-rising flour since it comprises baking powder as well as salt that makes a loaf rise while adding flavor. This results to better texture and taste.
Quality Greek Yogurt: For optimum outcomes, you should use high-quality Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is responsible for making the bread moist and rich in order to give it delicate, soft crumbs. Avoid using yogurts that are flavored or those with added sugars since they may tamper with the bread’s taste.
Do not over knead: Kneading dough should be done carefully without spending too much energy on it. Bread becomes hard and firm when over-kneaded. Gently knead until smooth and elastic in around five minutes until dough comes together.
Preheating Oven: Ensure you preheat your oven before baking breads. A hot oven guarantees even baking of the bread and ensures proper rising leading to a nice golden crust.
Watch Baking Time: Keep an eye on your loaf when baking it. It is advisable to check your bread after 25minutes because cooking time might differ depending upon the type of oven one uses. When tapped, the bottom of the bread should sound hollow and the top should be golden brown.
Allow the bread to cool slightly before slicing and serving to ensure that it sets well and does not go crumbly. Have your two-ingredient bread warm or at room temperature with any of your preferred toppings or spreads.
Health Benefits
Despite being simple, two-ingredient bread is healthy. Greek yogurt is full of protein, calcium and probiotics, while whole grain flour has fiber and other nutrients. Therefore home made bread is a better alternative to those sold in stores which have additives as well as preservatives.
