Beer Bread
The name itself must have excited you. Beer bread is one of the simplest bread recipes that you can make without yeast. You need only six ingredients for it:
- All-purpose flour or Gluten-free blended flour.
- Baking Powder, this will substitute the yeast.
- Salt
- Butter
- Honey
- And finally, beer
If you are using self-rising flour, then there is no need to use salt and baking powder. Once you have all the ingredients, mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Then add beer and honey into it while stirring continuously. When they all are combined well, you can transfer the batter into a greased pan. Bake it for at least 40 mins and check with a toothpick. After it is cooked, let it sit for about 10 minutes before cutting into slices. And voila! Your bread is ready.
Tip: You can add some butter on the top to give it a delightful flavor.

Classic Vegan Bread
All these bread recipes are great, but nothing can replace a classic vegan bread. Unlike other bread recipes, you can add multiple flours to it for a richer taste. For this, you need only a few ingredients:

- Plant milk – 500 ml (unsweetened)
- Baking soda – 1 tsp

Form a dough from the mixture, and do not over-knead it. The dough should be soft and shapable. Shape the dough and place it into a greased baking tray. Bake for about 35-40 minutes and your vegan bread is ready to be served.
Tip: Once the bread is cooled down, you can serve it with some butter on the top.
