Introduction

If you’ve ever craved warm, fresh bread but didn’t want to deal with kneading, rising,
or long ingredient lists, this recipe is going to amaze you. This
2-ingredient bread is one of the easiest homemade bread hacks ever—perfect for
busy days, beginners, or anyone who wants fast, soft, delicious bread with almost no effort.
You don’t need yeast, eggs, butter, or fancy tools. Just two simple ingredients you probably already have at home!

Ingredients

• 1½ cups self-rising flour
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

If you don’t have self-rising flour:
Use all-purpose flour + 1½ teaspoons baking powder + ¼ teaspoon salt.

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
2. In a bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Stir until it forms a shaggy dough.
3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 1–2 minutes until smooth. Do not over-knead.
4. Form the dough into a loaf, rolls, or flatten into a rustic round.
5. Bake for 25–30 minutes on a baking sheet, or 35–40 minutes in a loaf pan, until golden brown.
6. Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Description

This 2-ingredient bread comes out soft, slightly chewy, and wonderfully hearty.
The Greek yogurt adds a subtle tang similar to sourdough, and the self-rising flour
gives it lift without needing yeast. It’s perfect for sandwiches, toast, dipping,
or enjoying warm with butter and honey.

Tips

• If the dough is too sticky, add 1–2 tablespoons of flour.
• If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of yogurt at a time.
• Brush the top with milk before baking for a crispier finish.
• Add herbs, garlic powder, cheese, or honey for flavor variations.
• Divide dough into 6–8 balls to make rolls (bake 15–18 minutes).
• Use whole-wheat self-rising flour for a healthier option.

Correction

If your bread turns out dense or gummy:

• You may have overmixed the dough.
• Be sure you used Greek yogurt, not thin regular yogurt.
• Check that the baking powder in your self-rising flour is fresh.

Enjoy

Slice it warm, spread with butter, drizzle with honey, or pair it with your favorite soup.
This unbelievably simple bread proves you don’t need complicated recipes for homemade comfort food.
Enjoy every soft, warm bite!
