Easy Yeast Rolls Recipe For Beginners
Of course you can! After all, the difference between self raising flour and plain flour is that it has baking powder and some salt added to it.
Baking powder acts very similarly to soda when making bread and the Irish just love soda breads! In contrast to yeast, baking powder acts very differently when making bread. As soon as water is combined with the self-raising flour it starts to act, producing air bubbles that give the bread that fluffy appearance and texture.
On the other hand, yeast requires time to digest the sugars and ferment the bread. So while a yeast bread may need 4-5 hours to prove this self raising flour bread is ready to bake almost immediately.

Self raising flour is just plain flour with added raising agents – usually sodium bicarbonate and calcium phosphate, which are the active ingredients of baking powder. By By using a mix of these two ingredients you don’t need to add something acidic to get a loaf or bake to rise.
Quick Focaccia Bread
If you baking with baking soda as the only raising agent you need to add something acidic to react with the baking soda so the mixture rises. This is why you need (acidic) buttermilk to make a soda bread.
Step 1 – Gather your ingredients. Heat the oven to 190°C Fan (210°C regular) / 375°F /Gas Mark 6. Put a baking sheet or stone in the oven to heat. Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.

Step 3 – Turn the dough out onto the work surface and give it a very quick knead until smooth. It doesn’t need a lot of work.
Step 4 – Form into a flat disc, no more than about 1½”/3 cm thick. Important! Your dough must not be too thick. If it is, the bread won’t rise or bake through properly.
Step 5 – Score the top in a deep cross, cutting most of the way through the dough.As you can see, it’s formed into a round pancake, about 1½” (3 cm) thick, and deeply scored with a cross across the top.
Buttermilk Biscuit Bread
Put the dough on a silicone baking sheet or piece of baking parchment. Then place in the oven on the hot baking stone or sheet and cook for about 35 minutes. The bread will still be quite pale once cooked. Don’t expect, or wait for it to be golden brown.
Step 6 – The bread will rise as it cooks. Check the bread is cooked by flipping it off the baking sheet and giving it a tap. If it is done, it will sound hollow. Remove from the oven, and allow to cool enough to enjoy!
