The World’s Oldest Bread Recipe – Just 3 Ingredients

People have been making bread for thousands of years. In fact, there is evidence of people making bread as far back as 30,000 years ago. Unfortunately, prehistoric men didn’t write down their bread recipes on clay tablets. However, we have a good idea of what those recipes were.

According to scientists, people used to mix together wild wheat and root vegetables such as sweet potatoes, then they would either fry it or bake it.
