Once the dough has risen, carefully place it on a floured surface and shape it into a ball or a long loaf, depending on your preference. Touch the dough as little as possible to avoid degassing.
Second rise (optional):
For a fluffier bread, you can let the dough rise for another 30 minutes after shaping.
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 220°C.
If you like, you can cut slits into the top of the dough with a knife for a more rustic look.
Bake the bread for about 30 to 35 minutes, until it’s golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Cool:
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
And there you have it: a crispy and delicious homemade loaf, all without kneading! You can also customize this recipe by adding seeds, herbs, or even nuts.
Enjoy!😍
