BEST EVER SOURDOUGH OATMEAL BREAD

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a large bowl or your stand mixer bowl.
• Combine until a loose dough forms. Cover and let sit 30 minutes.
• Knead dough 5 - 10 minutes or until dough is smooth. The dough will still be quite wet. That's ok if you are using a stand mixer. If you are kneading by hand you my need to add a little more flour to keep the dough from sticking. Just add as little as possible as we want to keep this a soft dough.
• Place dough in a greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place, about 2 hours.
• Shape dough and place in a large greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise for an additional 1 - 1½ hours.
• If you are using a regular metal or glass loaf pan bake at 375 degrees for 50 - 55 minutes or until the interior reaches 200 degrees (I use my trusty digital thermometer for this). If you are using an unglazed terra cotta pan (like I do, shown above) follow the directions that come with the pan. For example, I soak the pan in water for 15 minutes and then place the bread in a cold oven, set the temperature to 475 and bake for about 50 minutes.
• When done, remove from pan and let cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting. This is important to let the crumb set so you will get nice even slices.

HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE SOURDOUGH BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a glass bowl, add water and yeast. Mix the yeast into the water and let it sit for a couple minutes.
• Add in the rest of the ingredients for the starter. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated.
• Wrap the bowl with clear wrap, making sure not to tightly seal the bowl. Let the starter breathe a little and keep it in a dark place at room temperature. Stir every 12 hours until making the dough. The starter will rise and shrink each day and you should see bubbles, letting you know that the yeast is being activated!
• On day 5, combine all ingredients into a bowl, and knead for 10 minutes on low if using a machine; if kneading by hand, knead for 20 minutes until dough is stretchy yet doesn't stick to your hands.
• While the dough is kneading, store your starter for future use. Your starter will last forever as long as you maintain and care for it. It can stay in the fridge and be fed once a week with a teaspoon of sugar. To replenish your starter, simply add 1 cup of flour (125g) and ½ cup of water (120ml), mix, and place it back in the fridge. Leave it out overnight to get to room temperature before preparing the dough.
• Place kneaded dough into a large floured bowl with a towel over the top, then sprinkle flour and let it rise for 12 hours.
• Place risen dough onto a floured board and knead for a few minutes. Place it into a floured proofing basket or a medium bowl, sprinkle flour and let it rise for another 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 480°F (250°C).
• Flip the dough onto a parchment paper, and transfer the dough and paper into a large cast-iron dutch oven.
• Score the top of the bread.
• Place the lid on top and bake for 30 minutes.
• Take the lid off and bake for another 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
• Transfer onto a cooling rack and let it rest for an hour. Knock the bottom of the bread to listen for a hollow knock.

SOURDOUGH APPLE OATMEAL SPICE BREAD

Steps:

• Bring the 3/4 cup of water to boil in a saucepan.
• Stir in the oats, turn heat to low and cover pan.
• Cook for 8 minutes, then cool to lukewarm.
• Place dried apples into a bowl or glass measuring cup and pour 1/3 cup water over them.
• Cover the container with a plate or plastic wrap and microwave for 1 minute.
• Set aside, with cover intact, and let cool.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine starter, water, milk powder, cider mix, sugar and butter.
• Stir in the cooled oats and apples.
• Add the rest of the ingredients and mix until it is a shaggy mass.
• Turn out onto a lightly oiled surface and fold the dough over onto itself repeatedly until it is supple and elastic.
• This dough should be quite soft and tacky, so don't add a lot of extra flour.
• Let the dough rest for 30 minutes, then fold it like a letter, turn 90 degrees and fold again.
• Wait another 30 minutes and repeat the foldings.
• Cover dough and let it rise until it is not quite doubled.
• Divide the dough into two portions and shape into loaves.
• Place in two loaf pans, about 4" x 8" that have been greased.
• Cover and proof until dough crests about 1" above rim of pans.
• Bake loaves at 375°F for about 45 minutes, rotating loaves halfway through the bake time for even browning.
• Turn bread out of pans onto a cooling rack immediately upon removing from oven.
• Cool at least 1 hour before slicing.
• Serve toasted or cold--I like to make a cream cheese spread by mixing some more of the spiced cider mix (to taste) into cream cheese.

OATMEAL SOURDOUGH BREAD FOR BREAD MACHINE

Steps:

• Add ingredients according to the recommendations from your bread machine's manufacturer.
• Use dough cycle.
• Remove finished dough and shape into loaf.
• Let rise forty minutes to one hour (until doubled). If using just starter and no yeast, rising time will vary greatly--I usually let mine rise overnight if I use just starter.
• Bake at 350 degrees 40 minutes. Don't preheat oven! Just stick bread dough in there and set the heat!

SOURDOUGH FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large baking sheet.
• Mix 2 cups of flour and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Add sourdough starter, egg, and vegetable oil. Mix well. Add remaining flour as needed. Dough should not be very sticky; if it comes out sticky, add more flour as needed, until it reaches a consistency that can be easily kneaded.
• Knead dough until smooth, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Roll dough out until it is fairly thin, roughly 1/4 inch. Place dough on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes.
