Simple Bread Recipe
There’s nothing better than the smell of fresh-baked bread! And you don’t have to spend hours preparing the dough and making sure things are absolutely perfect. The only downside to this recipe is that you need to prepare the dough in advance, as it can take over 12 hours to rise (there’s no kneading involved!). Here’s a simple bread recipe, for use with whole wheat flour:
3 C. Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons (or so) olive oil
Combine the flour, salt, and yeast with 1.5 Cups of water. Cover the dough (preferably somewhere dark and warm) and let rest for 12-24 hours.
When you’re ready to bake it, just coat the bottom and sides of a metal baking pan with some of the olive oil, and put the dough inside. Drizzle any remaining olive oil over the dough, and set it aside for an hour. Then, heat your oven to 350 degrees and bake for 45 minutes. Take the bread out of the pan immediately after baking to let it cool more quickly.
Of course, use your imagination to come up with variations on this simple recipe! Try other types of flour, or maybe adding some whole grains into the mix. Let me know what you come up with! Recipe originally found here.
