Sandwich Bread WITHOUT Yeast! (Dead easy)

Recipe video above. This is a bread loaf made without yeast or any other non-standard pantry ingredients. It's as close as you will get to real bread made with yeast! It has a proper crumb like real bread and it's sliceable, rather than being "muffin-like" which many no-yeast breads are. Loosely based on Damper, a traditional Australian bread historically made by swagmen and drovers over campfire (except I've brought it into the 21st century!) Toggle for METRIC (weights).

Ingredients

4 cups flour (, plain/all purpose (Note 1))

8 tsp baking powder ((Note 2))

3 tsp white sugar

1 1/2 tsp cooking / kosher salt ((REDUCE to 1 tsp if using table salt, Note 3))

2 1/4 cups milk (, warmed (any - Note 4))

1/4 cup oil (, any plain (vegetable, canola, sunflower, rapeseed, grapeseed, light olive oil))

Instructions

Step 01
Preheat oven to 220°C/430°F (200°C fan).
Step 02
Grease a 22 x 13 cm / 9 x 5" loaf pan, then line with parchment/baking paper with overhang (to lift out).
Step 03
Mix dry: Place flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a bowl, mix to combine.
Step 04
Add wet: Make a well in the centre, pour in oil and milk. Mix until flour is fully incorporated - batter will be thick but stirrable.
Step 05
Fill pan: Scrape into loaf pan, using a rubber spatula to scrape the bowl clean and smooth the surface.
Step 06
Bake 30 minutes. Remove from oven, cover with foil.
Step 07
Return to oven. Turn oven DOWN to 200°C/390°F (180°C fan), bake 20 minutes.
Step 08
Remove from oven. Cool in pan 5 minutes, then use excess paper to lift out and transfer to cooling rack.
Step 09
Cool completely before slicing - 45 minutes+. It IS more delicate than yeast breads (can't change science!) but slices far better than the usual "cake like" no yeast breads. Slices perfectly on Day 2 and beyond.
Step 10
Use for sandwiches, toast, grilled cheese, french toast, bread and butter pudding - anything you use "real" sandwich bread for!
