Here’s a super simple 4-ingredient bread recipe that’s quick, easy, and doesn’t require fancy tools. Perfect if you want homemade bread with minimal fuss.
🍞 4-Ingredient Bread
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour (or bread flour)
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 ½ cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
Optional: 1–2 tbsp sugar or honey for slight sweetness
Instructions
- Preheat oven
375°F (190°C). Grease a loaf pan or line with parchment paper. - Mix dry ingredients
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. - Add milk
Pour in milk and stir until a sticky dough forms. Don’t overmix — it should be slightly lumpy. - Shape & bake
- Transfer dough to the loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool & slice
Let bread cool 10–15 minutes before slicing.
💡 Tips & Variations
- Add herbs, cheese, or garlic for a savory twist.
- Use honey or mashed banana for a touch of sweetness.
- This bread is best fresh, but you can store it in a sealed bag for 2–3 days or freeze slices.
