no-knead sandwich bread

I can’t stop making sandwich bread! No kneading, no eggs, no butter!

So soft and delicious, my coworkers keep asking me to whip them up!

This easy sandwich bread is light, fluffy, and perfect for any meal.

With just a few simple ingredients, you’ll have fresh, homemade bread without the hassle!

Ingredients:

3 ½ cups (440g) all-purpose flour

1 ½ cups (360ml) warm water

2 tsp sugar

1 ½ tsp salt

2 ¼ tsp (1 packet) instant yeast

Instructions:

In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

Add flour and salt, then stir until combined. The dough will be sticky—that’s okay!

Cover and let it rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Transfer to a greased loaf pan, smooth the top, and let it rise for another 30 minutes.

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.

Let it cool before slicing.

How to Store

To keep your no-knead sandwich bread fresh, store it in an airtight container or wrap it in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to 3 days.

For longer storage, refrigerate it for up to 1 week, but be sure to wrap it well to prevent it from drying out.

If you want to keep it even longer, slice the bread, place parchment paper between slices, and freeze it in a sealed bag for up to 3 months.

When ready to enjoy, simply thaw at room temperature or warm it in the toaster or oven for a fresh-from-the-bakery taste!

Variations and Tips

For a heartier version of this no-knead sandwich bread, swap half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for added fiber and a nutty flavor.

Want a touch of sweetness? Add 1-2 tablespoons of honey for a slightly sweeter loaf.

You can also mix in seeds like flax, chia, or sunflower for extra texture and nutrition.

If you prefer a softer crust, brush the top with olive oil or milk before baking.

Always use warm (not hot) water to activate the yeast properly, and for best results, let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent it from becoming gummy.

Nutritional Information

This no-knead sandwich bread is a simple and wholesome option, providing a good source of carbohydrates for energy.

Each slice (depending on thickness) contains approximately 90–120 calories, with 2–3g of protein, 1g of fat, and 18–22g of carbohydrates.

Since it has no butter or eggs, it’s lower in saturated fat and cholesterol compared to traditional breads.

Using whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour can increase fiber content, making it more filling and nutritious.

Enjoy it in moderation as part of a balanced diet!
