Lemon Poppy Seed Bread

No knead bread is a very rustic bread loaf or boule made from four basic ingredients: just flour, yeast, salt and water. From there, you can add all kinds of herbs and spices to flavor your bread, or just keep it simple.

The way this recipe works is you simply mix together the ingredients in a bowl with a spoon, then leave the dough to rest, anywhere from 12-24 hours and up to a full week. The long resting time allows the dough to ferment, which gives it a tangy flavor, similar to sourdough bread. So if you’ve wanted to try baking sourdough, but are intimidated by the whole process of keeping and feeding the sourdough starter, you’ll love starting with this easy rustic bread recipe.

After the fermentation period, the dough is baked in a cast iron skillet at a very high temperature, giving it a thick and chewy crust.

Fast And Easy No Knead Bread

So Simple to Make. When it comes to bread baking, it really doesn’t get easier than today’s recipe. You don’t need to knead the dough, and you don’t need any special equipment, either. Simply mix, rest and then bake the dough.

Only Four Ingredients. Flour, water, salt and yeast is all you need, plus any optional herbs or spices to flavor the bread.

Tastes Like Rye Bread. Caraway seeds are used in rye bread, and I just love their flavor in today’s recipe. Since my bread doesn’t contain any rye flour, it’s not technically rye bread, but you could call it caraway bread instead.

No Knead Three Seed Bread

High Altitude Tested. I develop all the recipes on my site for Denver’s altitude of 5, 280 feet. If you’re at a lower or higher elevation, please see my FAQs for guidance on adjusting recipes for your altitude.

These are just a few suggestions for different ways you could flavor your no knead bread, but the possibilities are endless! If you use dried herbs instead of fresh, you should use less, since dried herbs are much stronger.

Best Ever Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf

Your bread will stay fresh at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for several months. Cool completely before storing in an airtight bag, or the steam from the warm bread will soften the crust.

Instead of a cast iron skillet, you can bake your bread in another heavy pan, such as a Dutch oven, or even on a pizza stone.

Flax And Sunflower Seed Bread Recipe

Hearty and Flavorful. I love the flavor and texture of homemade wheat bread, so much more than a basic honey wheat loaf from the grocery store. I made my whole wheat bread with seeds and nuts, which gives it so much more depth and flavor. You can use any combination of seeds and nuts that you like in your whole wheat sandwich bread, or even make it without. The crust of the bread is soft, making it perfect for sandwiches.

High Altitude Tested. I develop all the recipes on my site for Denver’s altitude of 5, 280 feet. If you’re at a lower or higher elevation, please see my FAQs for guidance on adjusting recipes for your altitude. That said, most of my yeast dough recipes for rolls, buns and bread can be made at any altitude without adjusting the ingredients. The main difference will simply be on how long it takes your dough to rise, since dough tends to rise faster at higher elevations.

Loaf Pan Tips: For today’s recipe, I used the small USA Pullman pan, which measures 9x4x4 inches, making a tall loaf of bread. The large USA Pullman pan measures 13x4x4 inches, and will also work for this recipe. I’ve also used the standard 1-lb USA bread loaf pan for sandwich bread, which measures 8.5×4.5×2.75 inches. Since the sides are not as high as the pullman pans, the loaf should puff over the top of the pan more as it proofs, before the bread is baked.

Besides honey, you can use plain granulated sugar, or any other sweetener you like, such as pure maple syrup, agave syrup, brown rice syrup, golden syrup or light molasses.

Easy

Yes, you can make whole wheat sandwich bread with seeds and nuts or without. You can use a variety of nuts and seeds, although I wouldn’t recommend using chia seeds. Chia seeds absorb moisture and swell up with a gelatinous texture, which would change the texture of the bread.

Seeded Oat Bread (no Kneading!)

Store the bread in an airtight container or plastic bag at room temperature for up to 3-4 days. The bread should stay soft for several days, but is also great toasted if it starts to get stale.
