RUSTIC NO-KNEAD BREAD



Rustic No-Knead Bread image

Yield 24 servings of 1 slice

Number Of Ingredients 7

6½ cups (1.5 L) bread flour, divided (see cook's tip)
3 tbsp (45 mL) sugar
2 pkgs (0.25 oz/8 g each) dry active yeast (4½ tsp/22 mL) (see cook's tip)
2 tsp (10 mL) salt
3 cups (750 mL) warm water (120°F -130°F/49°C -54°C)
2½ tbsp (22 mL) olive oil, divided
1 tbsp (15 mL) quick-cooking old-fashion oats, steel-cut oats, cornmeal, or wheat bran (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 3½ cups (875 mL) of the flour with the sugar, yeast, and salt.Add the water and 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the oil to a bowl. Beat on low speed with an electric mixer until moistened; beat on medium speed for 3 minutes.Add the remaining flour and beat until thoroughly mixed into a stiff batter. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) for 1 minute and turn off the oven. Place a pan of very warm water in back of the oven on the center rack.Place the covered bowl on the center rack of the oven and let the dough rise until it has doubled in size (about 1 hour). Remove the bowl from the oven. Stir the batter with a spoon (the dough will deflate). Brush the bottom and sides of the Rockcrok® Dutch Oven XL with ½ tbsp (7 mL) of the oil using the Chef's Silicone Basting Brush.Scrape the dough from the bowl into the pot, shaping into a mound (the dough will be slightly sticky). Turn the dough over to oil the top. Sprinkle with oats, if desired.Place the uncovered pot into the oven. Let the dough rise for 25-30 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.Carefully remove the pot from the oven to avoid deflating the dough. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake, uncovered, for 40-45 minutes or until the top of the bread is a deep golden brown.Remove the pot from the oven. Carefully place it on a cooling rack. Let the bread cool for at least 30 minutes, then release bread from the edge of the pan using the Cake Tester & Releaser or a table knife.

SLOW COOKER BREAD



Slow Cooker Bread image

Although this dough has no color, it is light and airy, like the soft inside of a loaf of French bread. The other surprising part is there's no need to let it rise. You can go directly from making the dough to baking with no waiting around. Magic.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 3h

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the pan
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Butter a 6-by-3-inch round pan and set aside.
  • Combine the butter, yeast, sugar, salt and 1 cup warm water in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. With the mixer on low speed, add 1/2 cup of the flour at a time, waiting for each addition to be fully incorporated before adding more. Once all of the flour is added, knead on medium speed for 8 minutes.
  • Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, transfer the pan to a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker and cover with the lid. Cook on high until the internal temperature of the bread registers 200 degrees F, about 2 hours. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a rack and let cool completely.

SLOW COOKER BREAD



Slow Cooker Bread image

Bread made in the slow cooker actually turns out a decent loaf, and it's very easy because this is a no-knead recipe. It is also quick because it requires only one rise; the second rise happens in the slow cooker. Adding seeds or rolled oats not only adds flavor, it also makes it easier to release the bread from the slow cooker.

Time 4h25m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup lukewarm water
1 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
2 ½ cups bread flour
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon lukewarm water, or more as needed
parchment paper
¼ cup sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Stir 1 cup water and yeast together in a small bowl until yeast is dissolved. Let sit until frothy or foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Mix flour and salt together in a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Add yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until evenly combined and no traces of flour remain. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and stir again; dough should be tacky but not wet.
  • Cover container with the lid. Let dough rise at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • Set slow cooker to High. Cut a piece of parchment paper to line the bottom of your slow cooker.
  • Dust a clean work surface with flour. Knead dough briefly with floured hands to get rid of any air pockets. Shape into a round or oval loaf depending on the shape of your slow cooker.
  • Sprinkle some of the sesame seeds on the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle remaining seeds generously all around the loaf. Place dough in the slow cooker and cover with the lid.
  • Cook on High for 2 hours. Lift the lid a couple of times during cooking to release the steam. An instant-read thermometer inserted deep into the loaf should read between 200 and 210 degrees F (93 to 99 degrees C). The surface of the bread should be dry and no longer spongy. Remove the loaf and tap the bottom; it should sound hollow.
  • Remove loaf from the slow cooker. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before cutting, at least 1 hour.

SPEEDY BREAD ON HOT STONE



Speedy Bread on Hot Stone image

This bread is a fast version of rustic bread. Moist and crispy! If you don't have a baking stone, you can use a heavy metal mold. Be careful by transferring the dough into the oven. The stone is very hot, you may need some help as the dough is very humid.

1 tablespoon barley malt
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups unbleached bread flour
2 cups whole wheat bread flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons vital gluten
2 teaspoons bread machine yeast

  • Add water, honey, Barley Malt,butter and oil.
  • Add the flour mixture.
  • Make a groove in flour and add yeast.
  • Set Bread machine to Dough cycle.
  • Keep an eye on the machine as dough may reach the top before the end of the cycle;if this happens push it back down.
  • At the end of this cycle, remove dough from machine and split it in 2.
  • Shape your breads in free form or in bread pans.
  • Preheat oven 400*.
  • Cover breads and let them rise for 45 minutes.
  • Score the loaves.
  • Place in hot oven for 10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to 350* and bake another 30 minutes.
  • Remove bread from pans and tap the bottom to make sure it is baked(hollow sound).If not, return bread in the oven (without the pan)for another 5 minutes.
  • Tip:.
  • If you do not have Barley Malt double the amount of honey.
  • While the oven is preheating,I set a large pan on top of the stove and sit my breads on a cookie on this pan for the rising stage.It works all the time.

Tips:

  • Use a large enough crock. The dough will rise and expand, so make sure the crock is at least twice the size of the dough.
  • Cover the crock tightly. This will help to create a humid environment, which is ideal for rising bread.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. The ideal temperature for rising bread is between 75 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Making bread in a crock is a simple and rewarding process. With a little practice, you'll be able to create delicious, rustic loaves of bread that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy baking project, give crock bread a try!
