Description

A delightful sourdough loaf infused with olive oil and egg, creating a perfect balance of flavors and textures.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of sourdough starter
  • 3 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of warm water
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar

Instructions

  1. Combine sourdough starter, warm water, and olive oil in a large mixing bowl until fully blended.
  2. Crack the egg into the mixture, ensuring it integrates smoothly.
  3. Introduce the flour, salt, and sugar gradually while mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Transfer the kneaded dough to a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for 4-6 hours until doubled in size.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Shape the risen dough into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan, then let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and hollow sounding when tapped.
  9. Cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

For best flavor, prepare your sourdough starter a day in advance. Optional: Add seeds or herbs to the dough for added flavor.
