Are you craving fresh homemade bread but don’t have the time or an oven? Don’t worry, you can still enjoy warm, delicious bread in just 10 minutes with this simple recipe! And the best part is, you don’t even need an oven!

Ingredients

To make this quick and easy bread, you will need the following ingredients:

• 200 milliliters of heated milk and/or water
• Half a spoonful of sugar
• One teaspoon of salt
• 10 grams of dry yeast

Preparation

1. Begin by heating 200 milliliters of milk and/or water. You can use either milk, water, or a combination of both depending on your preference.
2. Once the liquid is heated, add half a spoonful of sugar and one teaspoon of salt to it. Stir well until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
3. Next, add 10 grams of dry yeast to the mixture. Give it a gentle stir and let it sit for a few minutes until the yeast becomes activated and starts to foam.
4. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the activated yeast mixture with the desired amount of flour. You can use all-purpose flour or bread flour for this recipe.
5. Mix everything together until a soft and slightly sticky dough forms. Don’t worry if the dough feels a bit sticky, as it will become more manageable as you continue to knead.

Kneading and Shaping the Bread

1. Once the dough comes together, transfer it to a clean and lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
2. Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into small rounds or any desired shape. You can also roll the dough into long strips to make breadsticks if you prefer.
3. Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Leave some space between each piece to allow them to rise.
4. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for about 5 minutes. During this time, the dough will slightly rise and become more puffy.

Steaming the Bread

1. While the dough is resting, prepare a large pot with a steamer basket or a heatproof rack placed at the bottom. Add water to the pot, making sure it doesn’t touch the steamer basket or rack.
2. Once the dough has rested, carefully transfer it to the steamer basket or rack in the pot. Cover the pot with a lid to trap the steam and create a moist environment for the bread to bake.
3. Steam the bread for about 10 minutes over medium heat. The steam will help the bread cook and rise, resulting in a soft and fluffy texture.
4. After 10 minutes, remove the pot from the heat and uncover it. Carefully take out the steamed bread using tongs or a spatula. Be cautious as the bread will be hot.

Enjoying Your Homemade Bread

Now that your quick and easy bread is ready, it’s time to enjoy it! Serve the warm bread with your favorite spreads, such as butter, jam, or cream cheese. You can also use it to make sandwiches or toast it for a crispy texture.
