Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup active sourdough starter
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix the active sourdough starter, warm water, sugar, and olive oil until fully combined.
- Add flour and salt: Gradually sprinkle in the flour and add salt, mixing gently until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough: Dust a clean surface with flour. Turn the dough out and knead it for about 10 minutes.

- Reshape the dough: Once risen, punch down the dough, shape it back into a loaf, and place it in a greased loaf pan.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake: Slide the loaf into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool completely on a rack before slicing.
