Discover the simplicity and charm of White Batter Bread, a no-knead delight that's perfect for beginners and seasoned bakers alike. This quick and easy bread recipe combines pantry staples like all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, and a touch of sugar to create a soft, golden loaf with minimal effort. With its sticky, batter-like consistency, there's no kneading requiredβjust mix, let it rise, and bake to perfection. The resulting bread is incredibly versatile, boasting a tender crumb ideal for everything from morning toast to hearty sandwiches. Ready in under two hours, this one-pan wonder is a must-try for homemade bread enthusiasts looking for a fuss-free yet satisfying bake.
Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray or butter. Set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Stir to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
Add the warm water and softened unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until a thick batter forms. The batter will be sticky but ensure there are no visible dry pockets of flour.
Cover the mixing bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let the batter rise in a warm, draft-free environment for about 30 minutes or until it has doubled in size and looks puffy.
After the first rise, stir the batter down gently using a spoon for about 15-20 seconds. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly with the back of a spatula, smoothing the top.
Cover the loaf pan with the same kitchen towel and allow the batter to rise for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until it has doubled and reaches about 1/2 to 1 inch above the rim of the pan.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 190Β°C (375Β°F).
Once the batter has risen, place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when gently tapped.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Carefully remove the loaf from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and serve as desired. Enjoy your homemade White Batter Bread!
