Makes 2 medium size, beautiful soft, tasty loaves. I like to use proving baskets and bake on a pizza stone.

Categories     Breads

Time 7h30m

Yield 2 Loaves, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups active starter
1 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup oil or 1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup honey
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
3 cups white flour
3 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients together and knead dough for about five minutes. If dough is too sticky, add slightly more flour but dough should be soft and not dry and stiff. Place in oiled bowl and allow dough to rise for 3-4 hours or until nearly doubled in size.
  • Divide dough into two pieces and shape into loaves and place in two greased bread pans or proving baskets. If a free form loaf is desired, place on greased baking sheet. Spray with oil and cover with plastic wrap to keep from drying out. Allow to rise for 2-3 hours. About 30min before the bread is ready pre heat your oven to 450f/250c.
  • When dough has risen, slash the top of the loaf. Place in pre heated oven at the high temp for 10min ( this will give lovely crust with great colour, do not fear it will not burn in this time) then reduce temp to 375f/190c for a further 20 minute.

While I can't personally enjoy this sourdough bread due to my gluten intolerance, I can say that it looks absolutely mouthwatering. The texture seems perfect, and the flavor profile sounds divine. I'm sure my gluten-eating friends will love it!

The shaping instructions in this recipe are excellent. I was able to create a beautiful boule with ease, even though I'm a novice baker. The bread rose beautifully in the oven and had a gorgeous golden-brown crust.

I've never been a fan of sourdough bread, but this recipe changed my mind. The bread is incredibly soft and flavorful, with a mild tanginess that is perfectly balanced. I'm definitely a sourdough convert now!

This recipe is perfect for busy people like me who don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen. The overnight fermentation process means I can mix the dough in the evening and bake it the next morning with minimal effort.

I love that this sourdough bread recipe uses whole wheat flour, which makes it a healthier option compared to traditional white bread. The bread is still soft and fluffy, with a slightly nutty flavor that I really enjoy.
