Easy Yoghurt Bread

I’ve just got myself two new ovens and I’m in heaven. There’s so much I want to cook in them and I’m finding it’s bringing out the baker in me. And when feeling inspired by baking, bread is close to the top of the things I want to try cooking! This easy yoghurt bread was inspired by a cooking demonstration I did with the new ovens and I came home and just had to give it a try.

It is one of those fantastic recipes. Quick and easy to get into the oven and made from ingredients I almost always have in the house. What more could you ask for. There’s no waiting for it to prove, no fiddling around with yeast and I’ve found it to be quite a forgiving dough to work with.  And the yoghurt gives the bread a lovely tang which gives it a delicious difference to classic breads.

My girls love it too. Either warm or toasted then smeared with creamed honey it makes for a yummy snack or post dinner treat for them.

You can easily add to the basic dough to incorporate additional flavours. Semi-dried tomatoes, olives, herbs or spices all can be added to the dough. And who doesn’t love a good savoury loaf!
