Bread is a staple for breakfast. We make toast and sandwiches with it, and it comes in handy when you are looking for something to eat and don’t want to spend a lot of time making a meal. In recent times, the prices have risen. If your household eats bread for both breakfast and dinner, as is the case in most households, it adds up. Baking your own bread may seem like a good idea at first but there is a lot of work and it takes really long.

Here is a easy to follow recipe for bread that would be in your mouth in just 60 minutes. This recipe is eggless so it is suitable for vegan and vegetarians. Prep time is under 20 minutes and then it’s in the oven. With this recipe you should be able to shave a cool $200 off your current grocery bill as well as enjoy your favourite sandwiches on homemade bread which makes it taste much better.
