Olive Oil And Rosemary No Knead Bread Recipes

No knead bread is the way to go! You don’t need a machine. You don’t need any bread making experience. All you need is a bowl, a spoon, a pot, and plenty of time (it rises while you sleep!) and you too can be eating this yummy rosemary no knead bread tomorrow.

I have been making variations of no knead breads ever since Mark Bittman popularized Jim Lahey’s recipe in 2006.

Okay, no quite from 2006, since I will admit I was skeptical that you could stir some flour with yeast and water, just walk away, and come back to bread. But finally the excitement over this bread was too much for me (maybe about year later?) and I had to try it. One taste and I was a convert. 🙂 You really can walk away from dough and it’ll make bread while you sleep. In fact, I’d say leaving the dough alone and simply being patient might even make better bread than most of the more complicated methods.

Ingredients

• 15 oz (3 cups) all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp instant yeast
• 1 1/2 tsp table salt
• 2-3 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 1/4 cups room temperature water
• 1/4 cup olive oil

Instructions

1. In a large bowl combine the flour, yeast, salt, and rosemary. Add the water and olive oil and stir with a large spoon until the flour is completely incorporated. You may need to get your hands in there to finish mixing in the flour. The dough will be wet and sticky. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in a warm spot in the kitchen for 10-12 hours.
2. Once the dough is covered in bubbles and looks puffy the dough is ready to be shaped.
