Ingredients
- 3 cups (360g) white bread flour or see notes
- 2 ¼ tsp Rapid Rise Yeast (one packet)
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 cup (240ml) water , lukewarm
- 2 tbsp melted butter or ghee, plus extra for greasing
Instructions
- Measure the flour, sugar, salt and yeast into a mixing bowl. Stir to combine the dry ingredients.
- Pour in the water and melted butter. Mix together with a spoon or a dough hook until there are no dry streaks of flour and you have a shaggy, sticky dough.
- You do not have to knead this dough but you can, if you have time, do a couple of “stretch and folds”. Grease your hands with a little oil and stretch one corner of the bread from the underside over to the middle. Turn the bowl and repeat this action a few times.
- Cover with a clean towel and place someplace warm to rise for an hour.
- Tip the dough onto a lightly floured worktop. Gently stretch the dough to a rectangular shape. Fold the top towards the middle then the bottom over that, as you would fold a letter to place in an envelope.
- Turn sideways and fold into a roll. Use your hands to shape the bread into a ball shape (also known as a “boule”) dusting with flour as needed.
- Place it in a greased 7 inch cake pan, cover and leave to rise for half an hour.
- Preheat the Air Fryer to 400°F (200°C) for five minutes. Score the top of the bread with a knife and brush the sides with a little melted butter so it doesn’t stick.
- Place the pan in your air fryer and cook for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C). Lower the heat to 350°F (180°C) and continue to cook for 25 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the air fryer (using pot holders) and take the bread out. Place the bread back in the air fryer to cook for a further 5 minutes to allow for the bottom of the bread to bake evenly.
- Check the bread is done by tapping the underside – it should sound hollow. If the bread still feels doughy, continue to air fry for a few more minutes (Air Fryers can vary from brand to brand so keep that in mind).
- Cool on a wire rack before slicing.
Notes
- HOW CAN I TELL IF THE BREAD IS BAKED? Tap on the bottom of the bread and if you hear a hollow sounds then the bread should be cooked all the way through. Alternatively use an instant read digital thermometer to check if the internal temperature at the core is about 200°F (over 95°C). The only tricky thing about air fryer bread is that the bottom tends to be a bit doughy while the top looks perfectly baked. Flipping the bread over or cooking directly in the air fryer basket for a few minutes gets around this issue.
- STORING YOUR BREAD The best way to store bread is to slice it and freeze it. You can then toast slices from frozen as and when you need them. The bread can also be placed in a bread bag or wrapped in a linen towel for up to three days.
- USING ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR You can use all-purpose flour (plain flour) if you need to. 3 cups is 385g.
