Mountain Bread

25/5/2017

This topic came up again a few days ago, so I thought I'd revisit it here.

Mountain Bread (that thin, flat wrap stuff) can be bought direct from Mountain Bread for 33% less than you buy it at Coles or Woolworths.

If you order more than 8 packets (and no reason you can't - it lasts for just about ever, no preservatives and very little in actual ingredients, and it freezes) then delivery is free.

There are a lot of different varieties.

I buy wholemeal and corn.

I use them for wraps, as lasagne sheets when I'm too lazy to make them, for quesadillas, to make "pita" chips and to make Australian sushi.

We take them with us when we go camping, as fresh bread is hard to get in the bush. Being light and flat packed they store easily in the food drawer.

They make great strudels when you don't have filo. I use three sheets, spread with melted butter, sprinkled with almond meal, and stacked. On the last layer i put stewed apple and sultanas, or apple and rhubarb, sprinkle with a little cinnamon and brown sugar, roll up and bake 30 minutes. Delicious with ice-cream.

Use them as pastry sheets in the pie makers or quiche tins. 

Two sheets layered is great for sausage rolls when you don't have pastry.

You'll find ordering info here

You'll find the order form here (with prices and varieties).

Lots of uses - if you have another one, please share it.

Hi Donna, use the Mountain Bread sheets exactly as you would pastry sheets. Lay them out, cut in half, then put the mixture down the centre, roll over and bake for sausage rolls.

For pies or quiche, do the same. Cut your bases and tops, push them into the tins, fill and bake.

Re Mountain Bread. Is the online order site still the same or temporarily closed because of the virus? It doesn't say it's still there today.

Yes, the website is still there - this is an old post from 2017. I have updated the links to the direct forms. I suggest you go to Mountain Bread direct and ask them if they are still delivering, I have no idea.
There is nothing on their websit to say they're not.

I tried to order the mountain bread through the link however it’s not responding and even when I do a separate search the link doesn’t respond either. Any clues on how to buy them in bulk to save money?
Thanks, Cheers Shirley

I was able to get through to the website with that new link and I commenced an order with more than 8 packets but didn’t go ahead with it as there was $19.95 postage extra.
