Instructions

  1. Combine water, honey and oil and heat to about 110 F. Dissolve yeast in mixture and let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add flour, sourdough discard and salt to mixer bowl, then pour in yeast mixture. Mix with dough hook until you have a soft, slightly sticky dough. Knead in the machine for 5-10 minutes until dough pushes back/doesn't dent when pressed. Add a little additional water or flour if needed to make a nice consistency.
  3. Cover dough with a wet dish towel and let rise in warm place until doubled, 1-2 hours.
  4. Spray an 8 x 4 loaf pan with nonstick spray. Punch down dough then form into a loaf and place in pan.
  5. Let rise until almost double, about 30-45 minutes.
  6. Bake 30 minutes at 350 F until golden. Remove from pan to cool.

Notes

  • Instead of the sourdough starter you can use an an extra half cup each water and flour.
