How to Make Quick German Bread

Ingredients:

• 350 ml of water at room temperature
• 1 tablespoon of sugar
• 8 grams of dry yeast
• 25 ml of sunflower oil
• 500 grams of flour, plus extra for dusting

Steps:

1. Activate the Yeast: 

In a large bowl, mix the water, sugar, and dry yeast. Cover and let it sit for 5 minutes. This will make the yeast ready for making the dough.

2. Add Oil and Flour: 

Add the sunflower oil. Slowly add the flour, stirring well. Make sure there are no lumps and the flour is airy. This will help the bread to be lighter.

3. First Rise: 

Stir until you have a sticky and thick dough. Cover the bowl with a cloth and leave it in a warm place for 1 hour. The dough will rise and double in size.

4. Second Stir:

After the dough has risen, stir it for about 30 seconds. Cover it again and let it rest for another 30 minutes.

5. Shape the Dough:

Sprinkle some flour on a surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle. Fold it over itself, then cover it with a bowl for 10 minutes. This will let the dough relax.

6. Final Shape:

Sprinkle some more flour on the surface and roll out the dough to your desired thickness. Shape it as you like, ready for baking.

7. Bake:

Put the shaped dough on a baking tray. You can make some cuts on top for decoration. Bake in a preheated oven at 230°C (446°F) for 30-40 minutes, or until golden and done.

8. Cool and Enjoy:

Let the bread cool a bit before slicing. This will make it easier to cut and improve the flavor and texture of the bread.
