Description

This quick and easy bread recipe lets you bake fresh, golden, soft bread without all the fuss! Made in a bag, this no-knead bread comes out perfectly every time!


Ingredients

Scale
  1. 3 cups all-purpose flour (divided)
  2. 3 teaspoons sugar
  3. 1 package rapid-rise yeast
  4. 1 cup warm water (110°F)
  5. 3 tablespoons olive oil
  6. 1 ½ teaspoons salt

Instructions

  • Mix the Dough: In a large ziplock bag, combine 1 cup of flour, sugar, yeast, and warm water. Seal the bag and let it sit for 10 minutes to activate the yeast.
  • Add More Ingredients: Add 1 cup of flour, olive oil, and salt to the bag. Seal the bag and knead until smooth.
  • Form the Dough: Add the remaining 1 cup of flour, seal the bag, and knead again until it’s all incorporated. Shape the dough into a loaf.
  • Let It Rise: Let the dough rise for 30 minutes in the bag.
  • Bake: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the loaf on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the bread cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

Make sure the water is at the right temperature (around 110°F) to properly activate the yeast.

You can add herbs or spices to flavor the bread, such as garlic powder or rosemary, for an extra twist.
