Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams All-purpose flour
- 10 grams Salt
- 10 grams Active dry yeast
- 300 milliliters Warm water
- 30 milliliters Olive oil
- 20 grams Honey
- 50 grams Sesame seeds
- 20 grams Extra sesame seeds for topping
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine 100 milliliters of warm water with the yeast and honey. Stir lightly and let it stand for about 10 minutes until frothy.
In another bowl, mix the flour and salt together.
Add the olive oil to the yeast mixture, then gradually incorporate the dry ingredients and the remaining warm water into the bowl, mixing until a sticky dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Shape it into a loaf and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top, pressing them gently into the dough.
Cover the loaf with a cloth and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
Once the loaf has risen, bake it in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom and has a golden-brown crust.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
