Bread Recipe That Won’t Kill You

oKAY,

If anyone knows me, they know that I have a total bread obsession. An unhealthy bread obsession. I found a way to eat bread and not feel like total garbage afterwards. (Well, not quite as garbage)

¼ cup of Pillsbury bread flower (110 Calories) *stick with me here. I know it sounds like a lot, but it isn’t.*

1/8 cup of water (0 Calories) *you can add more or less depending on how light and airy you want your bread. For a dense, super hardy bread, add less. For a lighter airy bread, add more!*

½ tablespoon of baking soda (0 Calories) just for a little bit of rise.

Stir in a bowl until fully combined. You have to have at least some doughy consistancy, even if it is extremely sticky. Then, add flower to the top of it and let it sit for a few hours until it begins to grow in size. This is made by natural yeast and does not contain any calories. I usually let mine sit and rise overnight.

Then, set your oven to 350°f and let it warm. After that is done, add tin foil or baking paper to the bottom of your pan and set your dough inside. Your dough cannot spread out like cake batter, or it will not bake correctly. It HAS to hold its shape. Cut a few slits in the top of your bread, or else it will literally explode. I know from personal sad experiences (RIP bread loaf attempt #4-7). Then, bake it until it’s brown on the top and your slits have kinda separated. This will be different depending on the amount of water you added in the beginning.

Take the bread out of the oven and let it cool completely before you cut into it. This is the most tempting part. Once it’s cool, bag it up and keep it in a dry area and enjoy it slice bu slice! Even if you eat the entire loaf, it’s still only 110 calories. Half of the entire loaf would only be 55 calories.

I love adding fresh fruit, honey, or even just some cheese onto this and eat a little bit in the morning. Carbs are fuel, and I need it during school since I’m constantly walking around.

As always, I hope you enjoy this recipe! Message me for any questions or for more information if you’re interested.

Stay safe🍂
