Searching for easy bread recipes for the Thermomix TM7 or homemade bread with yoghurt? This all-in-one kitchen machine takes the hard work out of baking: the dough comes together in one bowl, with no sticky hands or aching arms.

A little sugar feeds the dried instant yeast, and sea salt balances the gentle dairy tang. Serve it warm with butter at Sunday breakfast, pack it into lunchboxes, or toast slices for a quick weeknight dinner side. Once the bakery aroma fills your home, this loaf will become a permanent fixture in your baking routine.
Preparation tips
- Use yoghurt at room temperature before starting, as cold yoghurt slows down the dried instant yeast and gives a denser crumb. Let it stand on the worktop while you weigh the strong bread flour and other ingredients.
- Shape the dough tightly into a round or oval before the final proof, and let it relax on a lined baking tray until visibly puffy. A sharp slash across the top helps the loaf open beautifully and bake evenly.
- For a softer crust, brush the baked loaf lightly with oil and cover it with a clean tea towel while cooling. This yoghurt bread also freezes well: slice it first so you can toast single portions straight from the freezer.
Recipe variations
- Herby yoghurt bread: knead a spoonful of dried rosemary or thyme into the dough along with the sea salt. The herbs add a Mediterranean touch that pairs beautifully with soup or a cheese board at dinner.
- Seeded variation: fold a mix of sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and rolled oats into the dough before shaping, and press extra seeds on top. This gives the yoghurt loaf a nutty crunch and extra fibre for breakfast.
