Looking for yeastless bread recipes? On this page you’ll find my recipe for homemade yeast-free bread mix made with whole wheat flour. I also share variations for how to make this bread mix and video tutorials.

What are yeastless bread recipes?

• Yeast is a common leavening agent used to make breads rise and fluffy in texture.
• Many people prefer not to eat yeasted bread for several reasons, including candida diet cleanse and Daniel Fasting.
• Yeastless bread recipes are recipes for baking homemade bread with no yeast.

Why make bread with no yeast?

• If you’re trying not to consume leavening (such as for the Daniel Fast), or are trying to remove candida from inside the body, avoiding yeast is important.
• People who are Daniel Fasting or celebrating Passover do not consume leavened bread for biblical reasons. People who are not eating yeast because of candida overgrowth do not consume yeast for health reasons.
• Other home bakers don’t want to use yeast because it’s a hassle and can be intimidating.

I’ve created the below yeast-free bread recipes for all types of home bakers!

Bob’s Red Mill Organic Whole Wheat Flour

My recommended flour for making yeast free whole wheat bread is Bob’s Red Mill. I like to buy the 25lb bag which makes about 18 yeast free bread mixes. This lasts my family about 3 months if we eat yeastless bread everyday.

Daniel Fast bread recipes

Personally, I don’t like to bake with yeast because it takes a lot of extra time to bake bread and I don’t like the flavor. Also, when I’m Daniel Fasting I cannot consume yeast or any other leavening agents like baking soda or baking powder.

Unleavened bread without yeast

The following recipes are all unleavened bread recipes, meaning they do not contain the three most common leavening agents:

• Yeast
• Baking soda
• Baking powder

Yeast Free Whole Wheat Bread Mix

Makes 16 servings

This is my basic unleavened whole wheat bread mix recipe used to prepare all recipes below.

Equipment

• Digital Scale
• Food processor
• Freezer bags
• Measuring cup
• Permanent marker

Ingredients

• 608 grams Bob’s Red Mill Organic Whole Wheat Flour
• 6 grams Salt
• 65 grams Olive Oil

Directions

1. In a food processor, combine all ingredients for 1 minute.
2. Transfer to a freezer bag for storage. Press all air out of bag and seal well.
3. Date and label bag with expiration date and contents.

Tips

1. I recommend purchasing flour in bulk, specifically 5 lbs or 25 lbs.
2. I prepare 18 mixes using one 25 lb bag of flour and several bottles of olive oil. Then, store the bread mixes in a food storage container with lid. This makes bread making super easy because you just empty a bag and bake your recipe.
3. When you find a recipe you like, premix the other dry ingredients into the bread mix. This will make it even easier to prepare your breads!
