5 Bread Machine Recipes without Yeast
For those who want to enjoy homemade bread without the hassle of working with yeast, bread machines offer a convenient solution. Here are five bread machine recipes that don’t require yeast:
No-Yeast Wheat Bread
This bread uses baking powder and baking soda as leavening agents. Combine wheat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, honey or brown sugar, oil or butter, and milk or yogurt in your bread machine. Set it to the whole wheat cycle and let it do its thing. In no time, you’ll have a loaf of warm, hearty bread ready to be sliced and enjoyed.
No-Yeast French Bread
If you’re craving the crusty, airy texture of French bread, this recipe is for you. Combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, water, and oil in your bread machine. Set it to the French bread cycle and let it knead and rise the dough. Once done, transfer the dough to a baking sheet and bake it in the oven at 450°F for 15 to 20 minutes. The result is a crispy, golden loaf that’s perfect for sandwiches or dipping in olive oil.
No-Yeast Banana Bread
This sweet and moist banana bread requires no yeast, thanks to the use of baking powder and baking soda. Mash ripe bananas and mix them with flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, eggs, oil or butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the batter into your bread machine and set it to the quick bread cycle. In an hour or so, your kitchen will be filled with the aroma of fresh-baked banana bread.
No-Yeast Cornbread
This Southern staple can also be made in a bread machine. Combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and melted butter or oil. Pour the batter into your bread machine and set it to the quick bread cycle or the cake/batter cycle. Once done, transfer the cornbread to a skillet or baking dish and bake it in the oven at 375°F for 20 to 25 minutes.
No-Yeast Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Get ready for a treat with this cinnamon-spiced raisin bread. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, cinnamon, milk or yogurt, oil or butter, and raisins in your bread machine. Set it to the sweet bread cycle and let it mix and knead the dough. Once done, you can either bake the bread in the machine or transfer the dough to a loaf pan and bake it in the oven at 375°F for 40 to 45 minutes. Serve it warm with a pat of butter or cream cheese for an indulgent breakfast or snack.
