Yeast

I've been gluten-free for nearly a decade now and bread is one of the things that I still struggle with. My high protein quinoa bread recipe has been my go-to for years, but a lot of people in this community can't tolerate yeast. Or they don't want to wait around for the yeast to rise.

There are a few pros and cons of using yeast. Not just in bread, but also in general. So let's talk about some of the pros and cons of yeast.

I'm not someone who struggles with yeast, but I know many of you are, so I wanted to create a gluten-free yeast-free bread that you can make at home and still love.

So if you're a sandwich (or toast lover), but your body does not tolerate yeast, it can be hard to find a bread recipe that you can actually enjoy. That's exactly why I created this recipe for you 😊

No Yeast Bread Recipe

When you're baking a yeast-free bread, the biggest concern is how to get the bread to rise without the yeast. Yeast is a leavening agent, and when used in combination with sugar and heat, it helps the bread to rise. So when you take the yeast out (along with most of the sugar), you need to add ingredients back in to give the loaf some height.

Baking powder/soda was an obvious choice, and because I tend to opt for using baking powder in my recipes, that's what I chose to do with this one. We're also using baking soda and apple cider vinegar for good measure!

So next, I turned to the eggs. Eggs are another ingredient that can be used as a leavening agent. Eggs help to give baked goods more structure and help them to rise.

But since I wanted to be sure this bread would get the height it needed, rather than just adding my eggs as I normally would, I decided to beat my egg whites to stiff peaks and then fold them into the prepared batter. The extra air from the egg whites would provide even more structure and help the bread rise even higher.

The result? I'm glad I went with the eggs. This bread rose beautifully in the oven and couldn't have been easier to make – I mean really, how can you complain with no rising time!?

Now I know the first question I'm going to be asked is after I post this recipe is, “Can I make this without eggs?”. I want to address that now and tell you that honestly, I don't think so. This recipe relies on the structure that the eggs provide and helps the loaf rise, so I just don't know if it will work with a flax/chia replacement.

I will tell you however, I'm on a mission to create a gluten-free, dairy-free, yeast-free, egg-free quinoa bread that will still be tender and soft, that will toast nicely and that can be used for sandwiches. The task will be harder, and it might take me a few times to master, but I promise, I'm going to try my darndest to get that recipe nailed.

For now, if you can tolerate eggs, I recommend that you give this sandwich bread a try. I promise you won't be disappointed!

And now friends, you are ready to go. Ready to make this amazing bread and enjoy it for your morning toast and sandwiches. I hope you love it!

You probably know that I've written 5 gluten free cookbooks, but you may not know that I didn't choose the subject of my second cookbook. At the time, I was so thrilled that my publisher wanted me to write a second cookbook, and thought nothing of the fact that they were dictating the subject.

I remember being kind of freaked out that there were other gluten free cookbooks already on the market that were called “quick and easy.” My editor was like, um, Nicole, it's basically a category of cookbooks. Relax.

I had a subject, then, but no hook. I flat out refused to make every single recipe in the book ready in 30 minutes or less (I'm not Rachael Ray!). Too arbitrary.

So I decided to add as many baking recipes as I could that were yeast-free. No yeast means no rising time, which means quick and easy!

I had already developed this very yeast free gluten free bread recipe for the blog after being asked a few times over the years whether there was any way to substitute yeast in my yeast bread recipes, especially my classic gluten free bread recipe for sandwiches. At first, I figured, um, no way. It's

-

And generally, there is no substitute for yeast. Chemical leaveners such as baking soda and baking powder (which is really just baking soda + cream of tartar + starch) aren't yeast substitutes.

Usually, baking soda is used in quick breadslike banana bread, and tend to be sweet, not savory. But that doesn't mean that I couldn't develop an entirely different recipe for yeast free bread that could be used for sandwiches.

I tried to give the bread as much chance of success as possible, so little by little, failure after failure, I added more support. It turned out that egg whites were really the key to adding structure and support.

Even though egg whites are mostly liquid, they actually tend to dry out baked goods so the recipe would need plenty of moisture for balance.

This recipe was such a success when I first posted it on the blog many years ago. I ended up deleting the post, though, most likely in a fit of shame.

The photos were just horrid. I remember also being a little nutso with the text overlays that were (I swear!) popular on blogs at the time.

Along with the success on the blog of my recipe for gluten free yeast free pizza crust(one of the most popular posts on the whole blog!), and how much you love my recipe for yeasted gluten free white sandwich bread, it seemed time to bring this recipe back.

Gluten Free No Yeast Bread Recipe For Sandwiches

It's a high-rising-then-falling sort of bread, so expect the shape to be a little unusual. You can score the top of the raw bread to help it split in the center rather than more irregularly, but it won't matter too much. Just be sure to bake it until a toothpick comes out entirely clean and all will be well.

The crust is thick and bakery-like, and the crumb is moist and tender but surprisingly strong. Expect some crumbs when you slice into it, and be sure to let it cool first. It freezes quite well after being sliced, too.

Since this recipe was developed as a response to all the substitution questions I have always gotten on the blog, it seems only fair to advise you on how to make more substitutions!

But remember that the more substitutions you make, the further the recipe gets from its original roots and the more likely it is to fail.

Whey powder:In recent years, whey protein powder is much more commonly available than whey powder. This recipe calls for whey powder, which I have always purchased at Whole Foods or my local natural foods store.

If you have trouble finding it and you can have dairy, I recommend using nonfat dry milk in place of the whey powder.

Dairy: I've made this recipe dairy free at least 100 times, but there are a few things to note. For milk, just use your favorite unsweetened, nondairy milk.

-

Instead of whey powder, you can use soy powder or egg protein powder. But since the egg protein powder tends to lead to a larger rise than either whey powder or soy powder, if you use it I recommend reducing the baking powder from 4 teaspoonsful to 3 and using about 1 tablespoon less milk.
