Ingredients
Preparing the Dough
- 150 grams active sourdough starter
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 2 cups lukewarm filtered water
- 1 ½ tsp sea salt
- 1 Tbsp warm butter
- 6 ½ cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
Preparing the Dough
- Mix together the active starter, water, salt, maple syrup, and butter in the large mixing bowl together until well combined.
- Gently add in the flour one cup full at a time. This will be a shaggy appearing dough.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and allow it to ferment for approximately 10 hours.
Shaping the Dough
- Separate the dough into two equal parts.
- Roll each section into a rectangle. Roll up the dough from the wide end to create a log. Tuck the ends to seal under the log and to fit inside the loaf pan.
- Place each loaf into two greased loaf pans. Cover with plastic wrap and allow them to rise up to 2 hours. They will fill out the pans and slightly rise.
Scoring the Bread
- Make a small slit down the center of the two loaves.
Baking the Bread
- Bake at 325 degrees for 35 minutes.
