❓ Frequently Asked Questions
❓ Can I use regular yogurt?
Not ideal — regular yogurt has more water and may make the dough too wet. Strain it first (cheesecloth or coffee filter) to thicken.
❓ Can I make this gluten-free?
Yes! Use a gluten-free self-rising flour blend (check label — should include baking powder and salt).
❓ Why didn’t my bread rise?
Old baking powder in flour
Overmixing
Oven not hot enough
📌 Test your self-rising flour: pinch some in water — it should bubble.
