For sourdough beginners, getting started with bread baking is easier than you think—I’ve been there! Here are three simple, low-effort ways to create delicious breads you can be proud of. These recipes are so easy and convenient that I still find myself returning to them time and time again!
1. Easy Overnight Sourdough Focaccia
No recipe is truly foolproof—I’ve even heard stories of people burning a pot while boiling water! But when it comes to sourdough, this Easy Overnight Sourdough Focaccia comes pretty close. The process is simple: mix the dough, do one round of stretch and fold, then let it ferment overnight for 8-12 hours. After that, transfer it to a cast iron pan for a final rise of 4-6 hours. Finally, dimple the dough and bake! This is the first recipe I would recommend to any sourdough beginner.
2. Rustic Overnight Sourdough Bread Rolls
Looking for an incredibly simple recipe to make rustic, crusty sourdough bread? This is it! Just mix the ingredients, knead until smooth, and let the dough rise overnight for 8-10 hours. The next day, shape the dough, give it a 2-hour rise, and bake. The result? Crusty, delicious bread rolls made with only 3 ingredients: flour, water, and salt.
3. Easy Overnight Sourdough Bread
This rustic sourdough sandwich bread is simple, low-stress, and sturdy enough to hold any sandwich filling, open-face toppings, or loaded toast. The process is easy: mix the ingredients the night before, knead until smooth, and let the dough ferment overnight for 8-10 hours. The next day, shape the dough, let it rise again in a loaf pan, and then bake. Easy, simple, and delicious!
