ragi flour bread |
Ingredients for Yeast Free Finger Millet Bread:
Ragi- 1/2 cup
Whole wheat flour - 1/2 cup
Salt -1/4 tsp
Sugar- 1 tsp
Baking soda- 1 tsp +1/2 tsp lemon juice
Baking powder (3/4 tsp) - I didn't use
Oil or ghee/butter - 2 tsp

- Knead the dough again in the morning for 5 minutes.
- Cut into two halves.
- Place a skillet on the gas stove. Keep a heavy bottomed steel plate or bowl or nonstick pan over the skillet.I did it on stovetop. But you may bake it in a microwave.
- Grease them and place the two logs.
- Grease the logs as well.

- We need to cook both sides (cooking the second side will take less time)

The dough will rise, though it won't rise as much as a yeast dough. But I want to avoid yeast as much as I can. I have not even included baking powder in the recipe.
Try it once. I am sure, you will love this healthier yeast-free ragi bread bun.
Can it be baked in a normal oven? If yes, then please share oven temperature etc.
