Ingredients Needed For 2 Ingredient Yogurt Bread Recipe

Self-rising flour: You’ll need to start off with this pantry staple. Since it already has salt and a leavening agent added in, you won’t need to use any additional baking powder or baking soda. 

Yogurt: Greek yogurt beautifully replaces the oil or butter that you’d usually need for a bread recipe. It adds the moisture and softness you need, while also bringing some delicious tanginess and flavor. 

****EAZYTIP: Ingredients like common seasonings, and oil don’t count towards the ingredient list because most people have these basic items in the pantry.

How to Make the Yogurt Bread

  1. Combine yogurt and flour in a large mixing bowl until you get a sticky dough. 
  2. Keep adding more flour a little at a time until you get a soft, manageable ball. 
  3. Transfer to a lined bread pan and bake in a preheated oven. 
  4. Allow it to cool before slicing and serving.

  • Top the bread with crushed nuts and seeds of your choice before you bake it to turn it into a nutritious and healthy bread.

Ideas On Serving This Two Ingredient Yogurt Bread

You can put the yogurt bread to use in lots of ways. Slice it and use it for your sandwiches or slather on some garlic butter and top with cheese and toast or bake it to turn it into a nice crunchy garlic bread. 

You can also spread your favorite jam or preserve on it, or pair it with your scrambled or fried eggs and enjoy it for breakfast. 

Storage Ideas & Suggestions

If you have any leftover yogurt bread or you’re making it in a large batch, you can cover them up in plastic wrap and refrigerate them. It should stay fresh for up to 3 days. 

You can then let it come to room temperature before you use it. 

You can also choose to freeze the bread if you want it to last longer. Use a freezer-safe container or a Ziploc bag for storage, and you should be able to freeze it for up to 3 months. 

Questions You Might Have

The crust on my bread is too crunchy for my liking.
Ok, not a problem. The super easy fix for that is to brush on some melted butter as soon as it comes out of the oven. Also, it helps to store the bread in a plastic bag that’s tightly closed. Lastly, toasting the bread less will help keep the crust on the softer side.

2 Ingredient Greek Yogurt Bread

Two Ingredient Greek Yogurt Bread

Yogurt with its tangy flavor and creamy texture, combines with self-rising flour,
and gives this bread a beautiful flavor. This recipe is perfect for new bakers who want to get their feet wet in the bread-baking world.

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Additional Time 10 minutes
Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups Self Rising Flour (see notes)
  • 1 1/2 cups Plain Greek Yogurt

Instructions

  1. Starting otu with a large bowl, combine the yogurt with 1 1/2 cups of flour. Get the two combined so that the dough looks ragged/shaggy.
  2. Add the remaining dough and stir until the mixture forms a smooth dough. (see notes)
  3. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper (or grease it very well).
  4. Roll the dough to roughly form the shape of the pan's dimensions. Drop the dough in the loaf pan.
  5. Using a sharp knife, lightly score the bread with 5 - 6 slices in the top of the dough.
  6. Cover with a damp cloth and preheat the oven to 375F (180C).
  7. When the oven is heated to temperature, remove the cloth off the bread and bake for 30 - 40 minutes. (see notes).
  8. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack to finish cooling.

Notes

1. You may or may not need extra flour. This will depend on how much water the yogurt has in it. If you're using a really thick yogurt, you'll need less flour. Be reserved with how much you add, but add extra just so that the dough is forming a nice ball, and is no longer sticky to your hands.

2. The bread is done when it's golden brown on the outside and sounds hollow when tapped on the top.
