This easy to make No Knead White Bread is made using basic ingredients and is great to use for grilling, toasting and sandwiches.

I love the process of baking bread, but sometimes just want to skip that  8 or 10 minutes of kneading. That is when this recipe comes to the rescue. Super simple, all the ingredients are mixed in one bowl.

Leave to rise, shape, and bake. Give this a try if this is your first time baking bread, it really is an amazing recipe.

Which ingredients are used to make the no knead white bread

There are just 5 ingredients used for this bake:

1. Flour
2. Yeast
3. Sugar
4. Salt
5. Warm water

FLOUR: Use  all-purpose / cake flour or plain flour

YEAST: for this recipe and all my bread and yeast-based recipes, I use the fast acting or instant dry yeast. It is added directly to the flour and does not need to be dissolved in water first.

WATER: the water should be lukewarm. Too cold and the yeast will not work and very hot water will kill the yeast.

MAKING THE NO KNEAD WHITE BREAD

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and yeast. Add the warm water and mix to form a soft dough.

Cover the dough and leave in a warm area of your kitchen for 45 – 60 minutes, until the dough has risen and has doubled in size.

Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface and form into a rectangular shape to fit into your loaf tin.

Place the shaped dough into a greased or lined 9×5-inch / 23 x 13 cm loaf pan.

Make a few slashes on the top of the loaf with a sharp knife and dust with a little flour if you prefer.

Leave once again in a warm area of your kitchen, until the dough has almost risen to the top of the pan. This should take about 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, place the loaf pan in a preheated oven of 392°F / 200°C for between 20 and 25 minutes, until the crust is browned and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.

Remove from the oven, and allow to cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Enjoy ♥
