Ingredients You’ll Need

(Makes 1 small loaf or 6–8 rolls)


2 cups (250g) self-rising flour

1 cup (240g) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat for best texture)

💡 Pro Tip: If you don’t have self-rising flour, make your own:

2 cups all-purpose flour + 3 tsp baking powder + ½ tsp salt


Step-by-Step Instructions (Simple & Foolproof)

1. Mix the Dough

In a large bowl, combine self-rising flour and Greek yogurt.

Stir with a spatula until a shaggy dough forms.


Use your hands to gently knead just 30 seconds—until smooth. Don’t overwork!


✨ Dough will be soft and slightly sticky—that’s normal!


2. Shape the Loaf

Option 1 (Loaf): Press into a greased 8x4-inch loaf pan.

Option 2 (Rolls): Divide into 6–8 balls, place in a greased skillet or baking dish.

Option 3 (Round Boule): Shape into a ball and place on a parchment-lined sheet.

3. Bake Until Golden

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake:


Loaf: 35–40 minutes

Rolls: 20–25 minutes

Boule: 30–35 minutes

Bread is done when golden brown and internal temp reaches 190°F (88°C).


4. Cool & Serve

Let cool 10–15 minutes before slicing.

Serve warm with butter, jam, or honey.


🌾 For extra softness: Brush top with melted butter right out of the oven.


Serving Suggestions & Pro Tips

Sandwiches: Perfect for chicken salad or grilled cheese

French toast: Stale slices work beautifully

Make ahead: Keeps wrapped at room temp for 3 days or freeze for 1 month

Flavor boost: Add garlic powder, herbs, or shredded cheese to the dough

Dairy-free? Use thick coconut yogurt or sour cream alternative

FAQs: Your Bread Questions, Answered

Q: Can I use regular yogurt?

A: Only if it’s strained (like Greek). Regular yogurt is too watery—your bread will be dense.


Q: Why is my bread dense?

A: Likely causes: overmixing, old baking powder, or using low-fat yogurt. Stick to full-fat and gentle handling.


Q: Can I make this in a bread machine?

A: Not recommended—it’s designed for yeast doughs. Oven baking gives best rise.


Q: What if I don’t have self-rising flour?

A: Make your own (see above)! It’s easy and ensures freshness.


Q: Is this gluten-free?

A: No—but you can try a GF self-rising blend (results may vary).
