Wow, Laura. You sure do talk about Stir-and-Pour Bread a lot.
Does this surprise you? Did I or did I not warn you that the Stir-and-Pour Bread would change your life? I did. There’s no way I will ever go back to the “old way” of making bread when this recipe makes a bread just as good with such a tiny amount of effort. I can’t stop talking about it!!!!!
We could talk about the weather if you want. Brr. It’s cold. I could really go for some warm homemade bread.
Well, I tried.
So guess what? All of the dry ingredients for Stir-and-Pour Bread fit in a one-quart jar! This means that you can fill jars with bread mix, tie them up with pretty ribbons, and give the gift that will change people’s lives!
I mean, Jesus is really what changes people’s lives. But Jesus is the Bread of Life, so there is a very deep connection here that we should discuss at length. Perhaps while the bread is in the oven baking???
This gift idea costs about $1.00 per jar. For a more elaborate gift that is still on the frugal side, how about gifting this jar of bread mix with a new ceramic bread dish? Who wouldn’t love that?? You could include a jar of homemade jelly. Maybe a jug of honey. A stick of butter? Well, that might be taking things too far.
Stir-and-Pour Bread Mix in a Jar
- 4 cups flour (I use freshly ground hard white wheat)
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 Tablespoons sucanat or sugar
- Stir ingredients and funnel into a quart-sized jar.
- Add gift tag with instructions to add water and bake!
I created a printable with instructions on how to stir together the bread and bake it. Print them, cut them, and tie them onto your gift jar!
