My only swap out was to AP flour as that’s all I had. Still a beautiful bread, just different texture! Delicious and a major hit at Christmas. Would share a photo if I could 😍

Delicious bread with homemade pesto. Over half was gone by day one.

What can you use instead of yeast?

Hey friend, we wouldn't recommend this recipe without the yeast. We'll note down the request for yeast-free bread in the future though 🤗

This is really good. I also did some nigella seeds and paprika powder into the dough. It was very good!

Mine came very unwrapped, and I made the dough in my bread machine but everyone enjoyed it anyway.

I don’t have a talent for making bread. It just never works for me… but this one turned out great!!! It was very easy to make and so delicious 🤤 will definitely be making it again

Whoop whoop! Sounds like you have more talent than you think, Milou 😜 so glad the pesto swirl bread was enjoyed though 🥰

I made this for a lunch on a canoe trip. I was perfect: easy to make, delicious, easy to eat (no dishes to do on the trip) and it kept well in our food barrel. I made it the day before we left and we had it on day 3 of the trip. I’m not saying to change the storage information, safe food storage is important, but I’m super happy it worked well for us!! Had it on top of a cliff/mountain with a nice lookout during one of our hikes. Tasted wonderful with a cream cheese pesto with sundried tomato spread, just pealing of some layers of bread and scooping up a bit of the spread. Thank you!!

I made this with my kids and it turned out exactly like the photo! It was really easy to make. It was delicious and didn’t last longer than a few hours in our house:)

Lovely! Tastes amazing and easy to make :)

If you leave it out longer before putting it in the oven, remember to reapply a few cuts (might have forgotten so and then it stays a bit flat🤷‍♂️)
