Phe-Free PKU Bread 🍞

🍞 PKU Bread (Only 6 Ingredients)

This simple PKU bread requires very little effort and just six basic ingredients.

Mix, let it rise, bake – and it’s ready!

🧺 Ingredients

• 250 g low-protein flour(I used Loprofin Mix; Mevalia works great as well)

• 1½ tea spoon dried yeast (around 2.5g)

• 1 tea spoon salt

• 1 tea spoon ground caraway seeds

• 225 ml warm water

• 40 ml sunflower oil

  
  

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Mix all ingredients

Add all dry and wet ingredients into a loaf pan and mix until a smooth dough forms.

2. Let it rise

Cover the pan and let the dough rise for 3 hours, or until visibly increased in size.

3. Ready to bake

The dough is ready when the surface looks soft, airy, and slightly bubbly.

4. Bake 🙂

Bake at 180 °C (356 °F) for 35 minutes.

Important note: Every oven is different, so baking time may vary.

My proven tip for a beautiful, crispy, golden crust:👉 First bake for 35 minutes at 180 °C (356 °F) using top & bottom heat program.👉 Then switch to fan + top heat for 2–3 minutes to finish the crust.

5. Finish the bread

Immediately after baking, brush the bread with water on all sides.Wrap it in a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 10 minutes to keep it soft and moist.

6. Serve 🙂

Slice and enjoy a soft, everyday low-protein bread.
