I've watched a lot of bakers and at some point, after becoming popular on RUclips, they get into an almost scientific way of baking bread: ratios tables, lamination, proofing boxes, etc. They lost me. Then, i discovered Grant. Please don't change, keep it simple, as it should be.
I love how you get to the point. In a short time you show us clearly everything we need to know about making a loaf… without a lot of useless information. You do such good instructional videos.. I’m never left with a bunch of questions. Thank you.
My husband has been begging me to make him a loaf of sourdough bread for almost a week. So I have this in my oven baking right now! I’m going to surprise him! Thank you so much for sharing this delicious, easy to follow, recipe!
This is the best sourdough sandwich loaf I have made yet! So delicious and soft. I did use buttermilk instead of regular milk and my starter wasn't at peak. I had to lower my oven temp to 375 for the last 30 mins as the tops were getting too brown, so I tented them with foil. My family love it and its now my go to recipe. Thank you Grant 😊
I made this bread today. I noticed the family lingering in the kitchen. I took the bread out of the oven. It was the most gorgeous loaf I’ve ever made. After being barraged as to when I could cut into it, we made it 45 minutes, I sliced it up and in 10 minutes it was gone! It tasted as good as it looked. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Every recipe of yours that I've tried has turned out well. I love your simple tutorials with none of the fancy jargon or unnecessary steps. This one is next.
I just made this loaf. Super yummy! Thanks so much for the recipe. It's hot where I am so instead of proofing the dough on the counter overnight I put it in the fridge after two hour outside. The next morning I let the dough come back to room temperature before continuing. The second proof was 5 hours instead of 8.
I have been trying to create the perfect sourdough sandwich loaf since January of this year. I was not in love with any of the loaves I made. Until today. I had found your recipe about a month ago and just got it accomplished this afternoon. It is exactly what I have had in my mind all this time. There's the softness, the just-right amount of sour tang and the ease of execution all rolled into one recipe. Thank you for sharing with us the "fruit" of your hard work to perfect this loaf! Delicious, nutritious, makes me feel ambitious!
Stumbled upon your recipe and I really like the straightforward way you present it. My 2 loaves are shaped and proofing, need a little less than 8 hours from right now before popping in oven. I appreciate that you provided an option to knead using a stand mixer. I’m also trying out your leftover 25g of starter method for my next batch of bread!
I baked a loaf of this today. I am really pleased with the outcome. Bread is flavorful, yet not overbearing from the starter. I will use this from now own. Thank you.
I can't thank you enough! This recipe is amazing! I made it twice already - the bread is so yummy! I will never use commercial yeast again. Thank you again for sharing!!!!
This recipe produces an excellent loaf! I have made it three times now, and all breads turned out spot on. They are rich in flavor (tangier your regular Tartine style bread) with a fluffy crumb that holds together well. I have the occasional large bubble but overall proofing is not a big issue. I played with the ingredients a little, used 10% spelt or whole wheat and replaced sugar with honey--success each time. This bread makes a great grilled cheese, one for the adults.
@@mashat502 I usually substitute 10%ish (50g) with whole wheat, rye, spelt, or whatever I feel like. So, it's 400g of bread flour plus 50g of something else.
Mine takes forever to proof…. Either my starter is weak or it’s too cold in my house😔 oven with light on doesn’t help. Right now it has been in a pan for 15 hours and it’s not big enough to bake.
Thank you !!! My New Sourdough starter did a great job making your bread recipe. This is my New GO to Sourdough bread . Makes a beautiful loaf of BREAD and taste awesome !!!! THANK YOU !!!
Thanks I made this today, the only changes that I made was: I put the dough in a pan and did the second rise in the frig for 18 hours. When I baked I just baked in the pan with no steam. Really great bread, sliced really easy and the taste was spot on. Thanks again for posting, Greg
This bread is the best tasting bread I have made. Thank you grant! It was such an easy recipe to follow and I love how all your videos and recipes are no fuss especially since so many complicated sourdough bread.
I just made my first sourdough loaf, this recipe was so easy and the bread turned out beautiful. Thanks so much for this great recipe. Only caveat is, we keep a warm house, after 4 hours it was on the verge of overproofing so lucky I caught it. Great video!
Hi Grant, just wanted to say thanks. My daughter asked for a sourdough that has a softer crust for sandwiches and toast. Fed my starter a couple days ago and made two of these! I’m having toast now 😊! Very good. Thank you for sharing ❤
Just finished the loaf today and we are really enjoying it! Was a little bit scared but managed to get through it. Second time of making anything sourdough!! Thanks for the video!
@@GrantBakes okay...this might make you laugh...I did a double batch of sourdough bread dough...with the idea of doing half in a loaf pan. Found out my in laws were coming over and in a rush decided to cook the whole thing in the Dutch oven. It looked to come out perfectly. Until 2 hours later I cut into it and the middle oozed out raw dough. I can still hear my mother in law laughing...
@@jasonreid611 Oh wow! Yeah I bet it was because it was twice as large of a loaf 😂 it probably needed a lot more baking time. Haha see, sometimes you just gotta try something and and make mistakes. This is what happens when you go off-script, Jason! Haha thanks for giving it a go anyway
Hi Grant, my dough was gorgeous, the bulk fermentation was terrific, after shaping it only rose to half of yours. The bread tastes great. How can I get it rise like yours?
Mine didn’t rise much either in the pan. I let it rise for 7 hours yesterday then in the fridge overnight then brought to room temp. It’s in the oven now, but I’m afraid it will be a dense brick. Sigh. I had high hopes.
I've been winging it for a couple of years, thanks for the recipe. I've been using a lot of starter, like a jarful, and not even sure how much flour but they always come out nice without measuring anything, lol.
Thanks! Yes, it's a long fermentation but I think that gets the best result. It's fluffier that way. And the total rise time would probably be shorter during the summer when it's a little warmer.
@@GrantBakes yes it's all about that rise. I'm sure it's totally worth the rise time to get that soft fresh consistency loaf! Really thinking of making this!
Thank you for all your videos. They are great and very informative. I have been successful with your other recipes and would like to try this one. But I have a glass loaf pan and would like to use it instead of buying another pan. The only modifications I can think of would be the baking temps. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
I have only used glass loaf pans for my bread, I’m on my 6th loaf and have had no problem even using a regular sourdough recipe. I butter the pan and bake a 375 for 40 to 45 minutes. It makes nice crunchy toast that my husband loves. If sandwich bread was my aim, I would use an egg or milk recipe for a softer bread, same buttering the pan and 375 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes. I don’t use steam either way and I butter the top as soon as it comes out.
Oh man! I love this recipe and was super excited to try. I had everything the temp it should be. I added the softened butter too late, I think. I forgot to put it in with the flour and after kneading in a standup mixer with the dough attachment for about 5 min, I realized I forgot the butter. It seemed ok but never rose. Do you think I ruined it? Please help!
I made it!!! Start to finish following everything you said right from the starter. It turned out beautifully. Now, one question, how do I store it for optimum freshness?
Since it has butter it won't go stale as quickly as regular sourdough. You can wrap in a tea towel on the counter, then slice n store in the freezer after a few days.
@@GrantBakes ... I love it. Next will be sourdough baguette. Thanks for the recipes. I would like to show you my sourdough bread from your recipe. What's your IG if you don't mind.
I do long bulk ferments which works well for my no knead breads, but isn’t 10hours rather long for final proof? I normally proof 1.5-2 hours for sandwich loaves.
I find that a longer proof for sandwich loaf gives it a better rise and it doesn’t rip along the sides of the pan when the bread expands in the oven. Of course you can definitely cut the proof short based on the temperature in your house. In the middle of a hot summer I would probably only proof this for 6 hours or so depending on how it looks. But yes, it is long, however I did like the result.
@@GrantBakes I made a great” no knead” SD loaf yesterday. I did 8 hrs bulk overnight, shaped next day, proofed 2-3 hours. It’s the best loaf I’ve done, recipe very similar to yours. Milk does make a difference.
Grant, I made 5 loaves of the sandwich bread this week. Why do you think the sour flavor is so much stronger in this bread compared to the batard or baguettes?
So for the overnight ferment it is under a dry towel? Not in a closed box or bag to keep the humidity up? Also, the milk is at room temperature for 24 hours. Is that a concern? Looks like beautiful bread. Trying it now.
What are the dimensions of the pan shown in this video? The pan on Your Amazon store shows 8.5 x 4.5 x 2.5 but the pan shown on your counter looks much deeper than 2.5”. Just curious. Great instruction!
I am living in hot climate country, all year around 30-34c, is it ok to do the last proofing for 8-10 hours in the temperature around 30c? Or I shall cut down the time?
Cut down the proofing time for both the bulk fermentation and the final proof. You'll probably have to experiment to see how long it takes for you. Ideally, for the final proof, let the dough proof until it fills the pan (like in the video) and it should be delicate and really puffy. That's how you'll know it's ready to bake!
Great, love your videos! Keep it going! Exactly what size loaf pan do you use for your sandwich bread? Thinking about buying non stick! Thank you so much🤗
That looks gorgeous and easy. I want to give this a try. Just curious, what is your room temperature at your home? My house is no more than 62-64 degrees F in the winter and depending on the weather, no more than 78 degrees in the warmer months. I checked your website for the recipe but it didn’t provide your room temp. Thanks so much! Enjoying your site very much!
Hi Grant, thanks for sharing such an easy approach to sourdough. I've got my 1st loaf ever, using this recipe, rising in the pan on counter. Question, what is the best way to store this baked loaf, or any homemade sourdough bread in general? Thanks much!
Hi Grant, I just recently discovered your videos and they're excellent! Just curious, how do you determine when to stretch/fold, like in your basic sourdough recipe vs. kneading, as you did in this one? Is it based on the hydration level? Thank you!
Hey, Bob! Thanks for following along. I find that with lower hydration doughs, like under 70%, kneading works better, and that above 70% some other form of gluten development, like stretching and folding, works well.
I don't like sour. how is this you said a little sour? I tried the whole wheat one, but used my sour dough starter instead of making what you did. I messed it up because I went to my daughters and wasn't back to do the baking. I am sure it would have been good. Its still able to use, but really sour because I used what I finally got to work. You really helped me with the starter so thank you so much.
Follow up. It worked… even put it in the fridge after shaping for a second night, took it out in the morning and by the time I got home from work it was perfectly risen and ready to bake. The bread was DeLicious! Great recipe! Thanks! Making sub buns with it today!
Hi I have some question : 1. The bulk ferment (8-10 hours) and the final proof (8-10 hours ) : we put the dough at room temperature or in the frige . 2. How’s about the ingredients for pan size 28x10x10 ( My pan is too bigger than you pan and my pan with the lid ) Sorry I’m the beginner for try to make the bread but I like very much to learn everything from your youtube . I’m from Vietnam so my english is not well ,but I thing you can understand my question Now I’ m making the sourdough starter from two kind ( from APF + water ; raisin ) After finish sourdough starter ,I will try to make sandwich from sourdough starter by this recipe. Thanks for read .
Do you happen to know if this will still work with almond milk? I unfortunately can't do regular milk anymore. I'm going to give it a try this weekend with some almond milk and see what I get!!
I always have trouble getting the tight smooth surface. My dough is sticky even though I follow directions. Can I just incorporate more flour while trying to shape?
Grant, this recipe is great! Thank you. Can you please tell me what the dimensions of the loaf pan you use is? Mine didn’t seem to rise as much as yours did in the pan, then I thought maybe my pan (10x5x2.5) may be larger than yours, hence the shallow loaf. Otherwise it turns out perfectly.
Hi Grant, do you have a link where the pan you used can be purchased. (Also what size loaf pan did you use) My bread came out very dense but I think it’s because my pan is too dark. Ty
I started off my sourdough journey by watching hours of tutorials. All the ratios, measurements, watching the starter and discarding it, Dutch ovens, timings….and in the end, I started from scratch as if went by instinct, and my bread was fantastic. After watching this video, I realise that all that previous‘scientific’ stuff was all about getting views. It really isn’t rocket science!
What modification(s) is/are needed if to use dinkel (80% sifted flour+20% wholegrain flour) instead of the flour you are using? Can one replace the augar with 13g honey instead? Thnx
No need to do slap and folds if you follow the process in this video. And I think you could store the bread in the freezer after baking. Sometimes I slice bread and then freeze it in individual slices. They toast up nicely in the toaster that way.
I would love to try this recipe for my family that loves to make sandwiches. Do you really need the sugar? I am trying to cut out as much sugar as I can out of our diet, thanks for sharing this recipe.
I just made this loaf with the Swerve granular sugar and it turned out great. My son is a type 1 diabetic so I also cook with less sugar or a sugar alternative.
Hello Grant, I have just a quick question before I try this recipe. I am unable to need the dough because I had hand surgery. I should be able to do all of this in my standup KitchenAid mixer. What I need to know is how long do I knead it on them in the mixer and it what speed. Thanks and God bless from Louisiana.
Speed 2 or 3 for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is nice and smooth. Then take it out of the bowl and form the dough into a smooth ball before the bulk fermentation. Should work great!
I recommend not baking in a Dutch oven for this bread. Just bake directly in the oven and get steam in the oven somehow. Also, if you let the dough proof as long as I did, you don't need to score the dough. If you score it, the dough might collapse and look funny.
Thk Grant for your reply. Can I use 50g of wholemeal flour, 150g of all purpose flour n 250g of bread flour instead. And keeping all the rest if water, milk, salt ,sugar n butter the same as yours. Will that be OK?
I've watched a lot of bakers and at some point, after becoming popular on RUclips, they get into an almost scientific way of baking bread: ratios tables, lamination, proofing boxes, etc. They lost me. Then, i discovered Grant. Please don't change, keep it simple, as it should be.

You didn’t do any part of the second rise on the counter? I’d think you’d need to let it rise at least 30% before moving it to the fridge?
I've made many of your recipes which always come out perfect. This bread was so simple and yet amazingly delicious! Love your videos.
Love your video. Straight to work with the recipe! ❤❤❤
Grant, so glad you made the Sandwich Recipe available. I do not like the Round Shape. Will
be baking soon. Thank you for sharing.
This bread is the best tasting bread I have made. Thank you grant! It was such an easy recipe to follow and I love how all your videos and recipes are no fuss especially since so many complicated sourdough bread.
Hi, one question - what is the ambient temperature in your house/kitchen, when you leave the dough to rise for 10 hours?
Higher than mine…
The only addition I make to the finished product is apricot preserves! Delicious!!!!
Sounds great!
I just started some sourdough starter. I had a good mother years ago while living in San Francisco. I usually use my Pullman pans for sandwich bread.

Did you proof for 4 hours for the first and again for the second rise?
I made it and it came out perfect! I love your recipes! Thank you!

You really helped me with the starter so thank you so much.
Making this today 🤞🤞🤞I’m so excited! Would it be ok to put dough in fridge overnight then set it out on the counter to bulk ferment while I’m at work?
Follow up. It worked… even put it in the fridge after shaping for a second night, took it out in the morning and by the time I got home from work it was perfectly risen and ready to bake. The bread was DeLicious! Great recipe! Thanks! Making sub buns with it today!
Thanks for the follow up! Glad it worked.
Hey, can I make this with all purpose flour instead of bread flour? And also let me know a wholewheat version. Thanks
You can definitely try it! Should be fine with all purpose. I’ll get back to you in a whole wheat version hopefully in the future 😊
I use ap flour and it seems to work fine, but sometimes it takes longer to proof. But that could just be my

Do you have to do stretch and folds when you knead the sourdough?
Thank you Grant! can you make "no kneading" 100% buckwheat bread?
Hmmm I have never made bread with buckwheat flour, to be honest. It would be interesting to try.
Question about the ice cubes in the oven. After those have already melted and evaporated do you leave the skillet in the oven or remove it?
Hi
I have some question :
1. The bulk ferment (8-10 hours) and the final proof (8-10 hours ) : we put the dough at room temperature or in the frige .
2. How’s about the ingredients for pan size 28x10x10
( My pan is too bigger than you pan and my pan with the lid )
Sorry I’m the beginner for try to make the bread but I like very much to learn everything from your youtube .
I’m from Vietnam so my english is not well ,but I thing you can understand my question
Now I’ m making the sourdough starter from two kind ( from APF + water ; raisin )
After finish sourdough starter ,I will try to make sandwich from sourdough starter by this recipe.
Thanks for read .
Do you happen to know if this will still work with almond milk? I unfortunately can't do regular milk anymore. I'm going to give it a try this weekend with some almond milk and see what I get!!
Update: I made this recipe with unsweetened, unflavored almond milk and it worked great! Thanks!
I always have trouble getting the tight smooth surface. My dough is sticky even though I follow directions. Can I just incorporate more flour while trying to shape?
Mine is sticky as well. Very new to sourdough so I figures it is beginners growing pains.
Grant, this recipe is great! Thank you. Can you please tell me what the dimensions of the loaf pan you use is? Mine didn’t seem to rise as much as yours did in the pan, then I thought maybe my pan (10x5x2.5) may be larger than yours, hence the shallow loaf. Otherwise it turns out perfectly.
👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏great job perfect explanation than you
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Grant, do you have a link where the pan you used can be purchased. (Also what size loaf pan did you use) My bread came out very dense but I think it’s because my pan is too dark. Ty
What does a baking steel do for bread?
I started off my sourdough journey by watching hours of tutorials. All the ratios, measurements, watching the starter and discarding it, Dutch ovens, timings….and in the end, I started from scratch as if went by instinct, and my bread was fantastic. After watching this video, I realise that all that previous‘scientific’ stuff was all about getting views. It really isn’t rocket science!
Thank you!
What modification(s) is/are needed if to use dinkel (80% sifted flour+20% wholegrain flour) instead of the flour you are using? Can one replace the augar with 13g honey instead? Thnx
Your dough, your choice - whatever works for you😊
Could you use a Pullman pan
Thanks a lot for the recipe . Do I need to do the ( fold and slap ) ?
Is it ok if I store the bread after baking in the freezer ?
Thanks 😊
No need to do slap and folds if you follow the process in this video. And I think you could store the bread in the freezer after baking. Sometimes I slice bread and then freeze it in individual slices. They toast up nicely in the toaster that way.
I would love to try this recipe for my family that loves to make sandwiches. Do you really need the sugar? I am trying to cut out as much sugar as I can out of our diet, thanks for sharing this recipe.
I just made this loaf with the Swerve granular sugar and it turned out great. My son is a type 1 diabetic so I also cook with less sugar or a sugar alternative.
Hello Grant, I have just a quick question before I try this recipe. I am unable to need the dough because I had hand surgery. I should be able to do all of this in my standup KitchenAid mixer. What I need to know is how long do I knead it on them in the mixer and it what speed. Thanks and God bless from Louisiana.
Speed 2 or 3 for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is nice and smooth. Then take it out of the bowl and form the dough into a smooth ball before the bulk fermentation. Should work great!
@@GrantBakes thank you you’re the best, God bless from Louisiana
After the last proof can I let it rest for over 12h? I started too late on the. Day so i won’t be able to bake it for at least 15h, would it be ok?
Hey Gant, maybe you try your hand at Kaiser rolls, with sourdough.
I’ll put it on my list!
Hi Grant, if u bake in a Dutch oven, isn't necessary. Do I ve to score it too?
I recommend not baking in a Dutch oven for this bread. Just bake directly in the oven and get steam in the oven somehow. Also, if you let the dough proof as long as I did, you don't need to score the dough. If you score it, the dough might collapse and look funny.
Thk Grant for your reply.
Can I use 50g of wholemeal flour, 150g of all purpose flour n 250g of bread flour instead. And keeping all the rest if water, milk, salt ,sugar n butter the same as yours.
Will that be OK?
@@emiliajeow2897 You can always give it a try! I'm sure it will be different but delicious!
@@GrantBakes Thk greatly for your wonderful encouragement. It a big boost for me to try it out.
Is it safe for milk to be in room temperature while fermenting and proofing?
Whoops. I think that end you cut off has my name on it. My favorite part of the loaf.
