The Life-Saving Recipe: No-Fail Nutty Sourdough

Say bye-bye to that bread machine that's taken up precious counter space since last Christmas. You can do this with just your brilliant self and a trusty—however flour-dusted—KitchenAid. (Don't tell him, but by the time he's back from picking the kids up, you'll be prettily perched on the counter, fresh bun in hand, and Mary Berry-level pride seeping from your pores.)

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups warm water
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup chopped nuts (walnuts work wonders!)

Instructions:

  1. Combine warm water and yeast in a large bowl—let it fizz and bubble like your last decent rosé.
  2. Add flour and salt, leaving you with a sticky relative of dough. 💪 Knead for 10 minutes. That's right, thanks for the free workout.
  3. Shape into a ball and let it rest like that time you napped at 2 PM last Tuesday.
  4. Throw in your nuts—this is where it gets nutty, literally.
  5. Allow to rise for an hour and tell Alexa to set a timer, because you know you'll forget.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for about 30 minutes. Smell that? It’s victory.
