Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:

Q: Can I use whole wheat flour instead of white flour?

A: Yes! You can substitute whole wheat flour for a more wholesome, hearty texture. However, you might need to add a little extra water as whole wheat flour tends to absorb more moisture.

Q: How can I store leftover bread?

A: To keep the bread fresh, store it in an airtight container or bread box. It can last for up to 4-5 days. You can also freeze it for longer storage!

Q: Can I make this recipe without yeast?

A: While yeast is the key to making fluffy bread, you can try a no-yeast version using baking soda or baking powder, but the texture will be different.
