Simple Soft Sourdough Sandwich Bread
Simple Soft Sourdough Sandwich Bread
A simple, soft sourdough sandwich bread recipe made with white or whole grain flour. An easy, healthy option for an old-fashioned overnight loaf.
Ingredients
- 2.5 (500) Cups (g) Warm Water 100º
- 1/3 (80) Cup (g) Sugar
- 150 g Sourdough Starter
- 4 (30) Tablespoons (g) Olive Oil
- 1 (15) Tablespoon (g) Salt
- 6-7 (900-1050) Cups (g) Flour
Instructions
- Place warm water, sugar and starter in a large mixing bowl.
- Add oil and salt to mixing bowl and combine.
- Add 6 cups of flour and mix well until all ingredients are well incorporated and rough dough forms.
- Allow dough to rest for 10 minutes. Then add an additional 1/4 cup of water. This will let your dough hydrate and create a barrier for you to do stretch and folds. Rest again for 10 minutes.
- Stretch and fold dough twice within 1 hour.
- Shape dough into a round and allow to rise in mixing bowl overnight (12 hours) or until dough has doubled.
- Once doubled, remove dough from bowl and cut in half.
- Shape each half of dough into a loaf and place in parchment lined bread pans.
- Allow dough to rise in loaf pans until they begin to mound (1-2 Hours)
- Preheat oven to 350ºF
- Bake loaves for 30 minutes until crust is browning. Remove and let cool fully before slicing.
Notes
1. Sugar can be substituted for honey at a 1:1 ratio.
2. Butter can be substituted for olive oil at a 1:1 ratio.
3. Convert this recipe to whole grains by substituing whole grain flour for the all-purpose. You may need an additional 1/2-1 Cup of flour depending on your dough's hydration level.
