If you didnt have yeast when lockdown started – you can make it from the natural yeasts that are in bread flour, with a little hot water and some time.

Take a large jar and put one table sppon of hot water and one of flour in the jar, stir until its well mixed,

Leave the jar covered with a clean cloth for 5 days in a warm place, adding a teaspoon of flour and and equal amount of warm water every day until the mixture starts to bubble . It can then be stored in the fridge and to keep it going add a table spoon of flour and water once a week.

If its starts to smell bad or turns any strange colours – toss it out and start again.

To use the yeast, add a large tablespoon of the mixture to the bread flour when making bread .

1 teaspoon yeast powder

3 and a half cups flour

1 and a half cups hot water

1 teaspoon Salt

3 teaspoons baking powder

Put the hot water in a large bowl

sprinkle the yeast in it and stir

add 3 cups of flour, salt and baking powder

mix until you get a good dough ball , add more flour until its not sticky

place a piece or wax paper in the slow cooker and place the dough ball in the center

put the slow cooker on low for 1 hour, the dough should rise and double in size.

set the slow cooker to hot and bake for 2 hours Remove and let the bread cool on a cooling rack before eating

can substitute the 1.5 cups of water, with half a cup water, half a cup milk and one egg. Or melted butter , and milk and and egg . so long as its around 1.5 cups of liquid. Experiment , its fun
