Bread contains yeast, which creates maltose when fermented. It also typically contains small amounts of lactose and sucrose, depending on the recipe used to prepare it. Quickbreads and muffins usually contain sugar and lactose in higher amounts, while the amount of maltose in quickbread is lower due to the lack of yeast.
