My four ingredient Bread
my four ingredient bread is a great starter for bread making, and an amazing addition to your weekly meals. This recipe is easy, has simple ingredients, and like I said it is a great start to learn how to make bread.
Ingredients
3 cups of warm water
2 1/4 tsp yeast
1 tbsp sugar
6 cups of flour
3 tsp salt (optional but adds taste)
Directions
Mix in your 2 1/4 tsp yeast and 1 tbsp sugar into your warm water and let it rest for 5-10 minutes until bubbly
Prepare your dry ingredients, mix 6 cups of flour and 3 tsp salt
Mix together your yeast mixture and flour until It is a soft and sticky dough.
Get a clean bowl and lightly spread the inside with olive or avocado oil. Place your dough in the bowl and allow it to set for 1-3 hours until it expands in size. The longer it sits the better it tastes so if you can wait the 3 hours, do so.
When the dough has rises, fold it over and divide the dough in 2-4 pieces. Put a parchment paper onto a baking sheet and place your pieces of dough on it with at least 4-5 inches apart from each other.
While your oven is preheating to 450, let your dough rest again. You can cover them with a kitchen towel and let it sit.
Bowl water and lace the boiling water an a pan and place it on the lower rack, this will help the bread have a nice hard crust.
When the bread has shape, score with a knife or blade however you’d like.
Bake for 20-25 minutes
