This no yeast einkorn bread recipe is the best and easiest you will ever find! It is super simple and very inexpensive. And, to think this recipe for bread with no yeast can be made from start to finish in less than one hour.

Some may think of the recipe as being similar to an Irish Soda Bread Recipe. It is very similar but with einkorn flour. Such an easy recipe for fresh homemade bread!

This one hour bread recipe as do most bread recipes work with all purpose flour. But, since I love using Einkorn Flour I made a few adjustments.

Einkorn wheat is a little different than modern wheat. Here is some helpful information that you may find of interest on einkorn flour. There are those with gluten sensitivities that have been able to enjoy the benefits of this ancient grain.

No Yeast Einkorn Bread Recipe

If you love making bread, but cannot always wait for the dough to rise and then be punched down and then to rise again…..then you must try this homemade bread that uses baking soda, baking powder and vinegar as the rising agents.

This recipe is ready-to-eat in one hour….Really, only one hour!!!

I have reworked my original recipe to reduce the baking soda, baking powder and vinegar. Plus, I increased the salt just a little bit. I also reduced the heat and bake time.

In doing so, this has created a fine texture, soft bread with a chewy crust……so, if this your ideal in a quick and easy bread recipe, then I really think you will love this one!

This is not your typical store bought white bread. This homemade delicious bread without yeast recipe is a bit denser and heartier.

I think you will love this easy quick bread recipe.

This incredibly simple no yeast bread recipe is made with everyday pantry items, things that you will have on hand to make cookies and quick breads.

But, if you should need to run to the store, then you will only need flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar and tad of vinegar.

Oh, and a little butter, avocado oil or olive oil to brush on top to make a softer crust…….it is that simple!

I really like using avocado oil instead of regular vegetable oil as avocado oil is one of the top healthiest oils ever!

One of those easy recipes but also a great recipe!

Instructions:

Step One:

Pre-heat your oven to 375 degrees.

Step Two:

Combine your dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar in a medium to large bowl with a wooden spoon.

Step Three:

Add the vinegar and the water, (remembering to reduce this down if using Einkorn Flour) Mix to combine into a ball.

Step Four:

Gently work with hands adding a tablespoon of flour at a time, if the dough is sticky. Knead the dough just a little to work everything together. Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl.

You may even want to turn your dough on a floured surface to help to combine the ingredients.

(This can really be a recipe for no-knead as the kneading is just enough to combine the ingredients!)

Important: When using Einkorn Flour, I let the dough rest for about 5 to 10 minutes to let the flour absorb the water before adding more flour to achieve proper consistency. For best results, do not add too much extra flour but just enough flour so you can handle the bread dough.

Step Five:

Place the dough on an ungreased cast iron skillet or griddle or a cookie sheet. You may even want to try using a loaf pan to see how it turns out!

Step Six:

Press the ball of dough into a round circle so it is about 1 to 1-1/2 inches thick overall.

Step Seven:

Score the top of the loaf 1/8 inch deep with a cross, X or # design using a serrated knife dipped in flour.

Important Note: Again, if using Einkorn Flour, let your loaf rest ( similar to let the bread rise) for approximately 10 minutes prior to baking. (This give the Einkorn Flour time to absorb the liquid.)

Step Eight:

Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.

Step: Nine

Take from the oven and lightly spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on the crust. Return to oven and continue baking 10 more minutes.

Step: Ten

When finished baking, remove from oven. The loaf is finished baking if the bottom sounds hollow when lightly tapped.

Step: Eleven

Cool for 10 minutes if you are able to wait that long.

Step: Twelve

Carefully slice with a serrated bread knife being carefully to slice through the bread and not push down to smush it.

Serve warm with butter and maybe even jam! (delicious!)

It is best used within a day or two. Freeze any leftovers for later on.

Do not be too hard on yourself the first time to bake bread. Keep developing your skills as practice makes perfect……Happy Baking!

The unbleached einkorn version can be considered as all purpose einkorn flour. I have gotten to the point, that unbleached einkorn flour is now my everyday regular flour.

I have not tried this recipe with einkorn whole wheat flour but, that is for next time!

Pro Tip:to freeze leftovers-first cut into slices and place in a freezer container or freezer bag. This way you will be able to remove one slice or more at a time for toast, sandwiches or French Toast.

To Wrap It Up this NO Yeast Einkorn Bread:

This No Yeast Bread is so simple to make, works well for slicing, is great for sandwiches and toast plus can be made into homemade croutons! Such a versatile easy way to make a quick breakfast or dinner bread. I really hope you will give it a try and that you enjoy it!
