Sourdough Bread Recipe
This sourdough bread recipe is a classic. I am not sure what caused the craze. Our website doing very well, or the number of people searching for a sourdough bread recipe.
According to our website statistics, this sourdough recipe is one of the top-performing recipes, after forced work from home was called. It is really interesting to see how many people starting baking homemade bread, since then. I was at first a bit baffled, but I totally understand it all now.
There are many sourdough bread recipes floating around, and as a warning, before you continue with this recipe, please make sure you have a sourdough starter prepared. We have tried many different approaches and found that preparing sourdough bread from a sourdough starter, works and tastes the best.
We will never tell our website visitors what they have to do or how they need to do it, but we will always share our advice and experience and can say that it is best to stay away from sourdough bread recipes that do not call for a sourdough starter.
We are happy you are here and hope you enjoy our sourdough starter recipe. Please let us know what you think of this recipe. You can also take a snapshot of your homemade sourdough bread and tag us on Instagram @cookingcatdotcom.
Thanks and happy sourdough bread baking.

Preparation
Ingredients
Directions
- Whisk and combine the sourdough starter, water, and olive oil in a mixing bowl
- Add the flour, salt, and sugar and mix together using your hands
- Remove the dough from the bowl and form into a ball. Grease the bowl with cooking spray and return the dough to the mixing bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap
- Leave the dough to rest overnight, then remove and place on a prepared flour surface. Fold the dough over itself a few times to strengthen, then shape the dough into a ball or boule. Place the dough into a bowl with the smooth side down and allow to rest for 2½ hours, or maybe longer, until the dough has risen to almost double in size
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and place one of the baking trays on the bottom shelf of the oven
- Transfer the dough to a flat baking tray and gently form it into a ball or boule again
- Gently score the top of the dough with a sharp knife
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Enjoy.

Because Egypt has a bit of a Christmas tone, I prefer to bake this bread over the festive season, including Christmas and thanksgiving. My only wish for this Christmas is that I have discovered this recipe earlier. It is so good I am sure Santa has a slice of this bread when he goes down my chimney. 🍞🎅 5.00Respond to Comments

This is the best sourdough bread recipe I could find and I am happy I did. Since working from home, I, like many others, started baking my own bread. I tried some of your other bread recipes, including the banana bread, and I can say they are all wonderful. It is clear you do not only list any recipes, but only quality recipes, like this one. Thanks! ❤️👋🍞🥖 5.00Respond to Comments
