Best 4 One Dish No Knead Bread Recipes

NO-KNEAD LOAF BREAD

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar or honey, if using.
• Use a whisk or spoon to blend well.
• Slowly add the water and stir with a wooden spoon or your hands, until well mixed.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set in a draft-free place to rise for 4 hours.
• Grease an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan with butter.
• Scrape the dough out onto a well-floured surface, such as a silicone mat, parchment paper, or a cutting board.
• With floured hands, shape the dough into a rough rectangle about 8 1/2 inches by 12 inches. Add small amounts of flour, if needed, to keep it from sticking to the surface. Try to handle the dough gently so it doesn't deflate too much. You want lots of little air bubbles through the loaf.
• Gently fold the ends to form a rough loaf shape. Drop it into the prepared pan.
• Cover the pan loosely with a clean, lightweight dish towel, and set in a draft-free place for 1 hour, or until it is approximately double in size.
• Heat the oven to 425 F. With a sifter or fine-mesh sieve, dust the risen loaf with a little more flour.
• Bake the loaf for 25 minutes, until it's a deep golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
• Remove from the oven and turn the bread out onto a rack to cool completely before slicing.
• Enjoy!

NO-KNEAD BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine flour, yeast and salt. Add 1 1/2 cups/345 grams water and stir until blended; dough will be shaggy and sticky. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rest at least 12 hours, preferably about 18, at warm room temperature, about 70 degrees.
• Dough is ready when its surface is dotted with bubbles. Lightly flour a work surface and place dough on it; sprinkle it with a little more flour and fold it over on itself once or twice. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest about 15 minutes.
• Using just enough flour to keep dough from sticking to work surface or to your fingers, gently and quickly shape dough into a ball. Generously coat a cotton towel (not terry cloth) with flour, wheat bran or cornmeal; put dough seam side down on towel and dust with more flour, bran or cornmeal. Cover with another cotton towel and let rise for about 2 hours. When it is ready, dough will be more than double in size and will not readily spring back when poked with a finger.
• At least a half-hour before dough is ready, heat oven to 450 degrees. Put a 6- to 8-quart heavy covered pot (cast iron, enamel, Pyrex or ceramic) in oven as it heats. When dough is ready, carefully remove pot from oven. Slide your hand under towel and turn dough over into pot, seam side up; it may look like a mess, but that is OK. Shake pan once or twice if dough is unevenly distributed; it will straighten out as it bakes. Cover with lid and bake 30 minutes, then remove lid and bake another 15 to 30 minutes, until loaf is beautifully browned. Cool on a rack.
