no yeast semolina bread |
Yes, in addition to my yeast-free bread baking spree, today, I bring to you instant semolina bread - which is more or less baked like a cake, with the difference being in the amount of oil, sugar used. The soft, spongy, crumbly bread will steal away your heart and I am sure this eggless, no yeast bread will become too common in your home. Yes, do not be surprised if sandwich bread makes an entry into your regular meal planning.
I do not say you will forget the yeast bread from the market, but for people with allergies, this semolina bread makes a great substitute, for
- it does not use yeast
- it does not use maida/all-purpose flour
- it does not require kneading
- it does not require proofing
- it does not require anything other than semolina
So does that make a great bread?
Yes, for people with celiac disease or food allergies or sensitivities may find this semolina yeast free bread a perfect substitute.
Why is Maida Bad?
The semolina bread without yeast has a sweet and subtle flavor imparted by golden syrup. Bursting with a unique aroma of semolina, the no knead bread recipe is a keeper for people who do not have the time or patience to wait for proofing.
Of course, this saves you from using yeast as well.
Moreover, the bread has a great texture, flavor, and taste and has an edge over maida/all-purpose flour breads. The yeast breads are lighter and fluffier compared to no yeast breads.

When the bread was baking in my oven, my whole house was filled with a unique aroma that I wanted to open the oven and savor the baking goodie!!
Is semolina whole grain is a question that often pops up in the mind of health freaks.
Compared to whole wheat flour, which comprises endosperm, bran, and germ, semolina flour only comprises the endosperm and is higher in carbs. It is a healthier alternative to all-purpose/white flour but not better than whole grains.
Thanks to Parul Bansal for sharing her semolina bread recipe in my group, which inspired me to try its no yeast version.

ReplyDeleteYes, you can! But remember yeast-free breads are more like cakes - little heavier than normal yeast loaves
