@the_sourdoughhoe: 🍞✨ Beginner-Friendly Soft Sourdough Sandwich Bread ✨🍞 I first shared this back in August for back-to-school, but it felt only right to bring it back for the new year — especially with so many new faces here. This is one of my most approachable loaves and we’ll be doing inclusions with this dough soon, so I wanted it fresh in your saves. (Also yes — I mention dental surgery in this video. I’m fully healed and all good now 🫶) Ingredients • 500g bread flour • 150g active sourdough starter • 300g water • 25g maple syrup (or honey) • 20g avocado oil (or butter / olive oil) • 10g salt Instructions 1️⃣ Mix the water and starter first. 2️⃣ Add the remaining ingredients and mix until fully combined. 3️⃣ Cover and rest for 30 minutes. 4️⃣ Stretch & fold, then rest 30 minutes. 5️⃣ Coil fold, rest 30 minutes. 6️⃣ Final coil fold, leaving the dough seam-side down. 7️⃣ Let the dough bulk ferment until fully fermented. 8️⃣ Shape: • Gently stretch into a rectangle • Fold each side halfway toward the center • Roll up tightly, tuck the ends under • Place into a parchment-lined loaf pan 9️⃣ Cover and cold ferment overnight in the fridge. 🔟 Bake day: • Preheat oven to 425°F • Remove dough from fridge • Score 3 straight lines across the top • Lightly mist with water • Cover with a second loaf pan ➡️ Bake 20 minutes covered ➡️ Remove top pan, bake 10 minutes uncovered ➡️ Remove loaf from pan and bake 5–10 minutes directly on the rack. Let rest 1 hour before slicing. Soft, fluffy, and slices like a dream 🤍

I made this, it’s perfect! I used maple syrup and olive oil. My first loaf I did a bulk ferment of 10 hours. It was great my second loaf I did 7 hours. It was great. I have unfollowed my other sourdough person, and you will be my only go to for sourdough recipes!!

So after it's taken from the fridge, Do you bake it cold? Or wait for it to get to room temp?

This recipe makes an incredible.sanwhich loaf. However, my loaf needed longer cooking times than she recommends. So, make sure to take the temp of your bread to ensure it is perfect!

I just want to thank you so much for this video. I’ve started my sourdough journey and I’m a month in. Tried 10 different recipes and this one is by for the easiest and the best results! Fed my starter at 11pm last Wednesday. Yesterday morning mixed my dough at 7am. Was done bulk fermenting by 1:30pm and into the fridge. got up this morning and baked at 5:30 am. And it came out beautiful.

@The_Sourdoughhoe quick question. What makes a bread fluffy ? I meant, I just have made normal sourdough loaf and bagels and both were rustic, with a crust…but watching yours it is literally like a brioche bread… and I dont understand it at all…

no one else wants to answer my question but claims to want to help. when you first start, and its time to bake do you use the whole starter and start a new one or save some and continue feeding?

Samantha Goodley :
Ok so my dough was looking so good after fermentation then got it out to shap and it was so sticky so I couldn’t fold it correctly. Why would this be?
