Type Bread

Crustless bread is bread without crusts. Panko is made from such a bread, which is produced by passing an electric current through the dough.[1] British food group RHM manufacture a crustless bread targeted at children called Hovis Invisible Crust, which is produced by baking the bread at low temperature.[2] Other bread manufacturers have released crustless bread, with the crusts removed.

Measurable nutritional loss can result from omitting crusts from bread. Bread crusts are higher in the antioxidant pronyl-lysine than the inner portion of the bread.[3] Crusts from darker breads, in particular, contain higher amounts of this antioxidant,[4] which is being researched for its potential colorectal cancer inhibitory properties.[5][6]
