With winter temperatures dropping, a day spent cooking indoors is the perfect way to escape the cold. But if you’ve never made bread before, all of the kneading, shaping, and leavening can seem little overwhelming. This is where the popular without kneading Dutch oven the bread trend is coming.
It’s ridiculously easy to do
Non-bakers will love this bread recipe, described on Jessica in the kitchen. Her version only calls for six ingredients, and one of them is water. To get started, you will need:
- 4 3/4 cups all-purpose flour + a little more for flouring
- 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast (about 1 pouch)
- 2 teaspoons of sea salt
- 2 cups very hot water (about 120 ° F / 48 ° C)
- 2 teaspoons of maple syrup, agave or granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil or any oil
From there, you will simply whisk the dry ingredients in a very large bowl and create a well in the center to add the lukewarm water, maple syrup, and oil. Then mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients to form a shaggy but well mixed dough.
Jessica in the kitchen then asks you to “lightly grease the sides of the bowl and turn the dough inside to grease the dough”. You will then cover your dough with a sheet of greased plastic wrap or a light tea towel and let it rise until it doubles in size (about 2 to 3 hours).
