I’ve been experimenting with quick breads lately, and this Greek Yogurt Bread has quickly become a favorite in my kitchen. It’s the kind of recipe I turn to when I want something homemade, cozy, and fresh from the oven without the wait that yeast breads require. No fancy steps, no long rising times, just mix, bake, and enjoy.
What I love most is the texture. Thanks to the yogurt and eggs, the loaf bakes up soft and tender, with just the right amount of tang. It slices beautifully, which makes it perfect for breakfast toast, sandwiches, or simply tearing off a piece while it’s still warm. And since it’s made with Greek yogurt and eggs, this is actually a higher-protein bread, which makes it feel even more satisfying and nourishing.
I sometimes sprinkle a handful of seeds on top for crunch, but honestly, it’s delicious plain too. In my house, it rarely lasts more than a day or two, we eat it with soups, spread with butter and jam, or even topped with a little cheese.
If you’re looking for an easy, wholesome loaf that feels homemade, comforting, and a little extra nourishing, this one’s for you.
How to make Greek Yogurt Bread
Begin by preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch (23×13 cm) loaf pan and line with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the yogurt, eggs, and olive oil. Use a hand mixer to mix until smooth.
Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. For extra flavor and crunch, you can brush the top lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and seeds.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the loaf is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling before slicing.
