Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date's 'Christmas Cookies' theme! Here are the Christmas Cookies I did for you today!
For the dinner date, I made some easy no knead bread. Daughter L found the recipe based on a Pinterest post. I used unbleached flour below.
3 c flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp yeast (active or instant is fine)
1 1/2 c warm water (110F)
Mix flour, salt, yeast in a large bowl. Mix in warm water. Cover with plastic wrap 6 - 15 hours. I did this in the evening and baked it the next morning.
Preheat oven 450 F
add 3 cups of very hot water to a 9 x 13" baking pan. Place it in the bottom rack of the oven. The water will create steam to keep the bread crusty on the outside as it bakes.
Transfer the sticky dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, loosely shape into a loaf with floured hands. Consider patting some flour on the top and cutting several slits on top. Bake 25-30 mins until browned.
The next day I made the same recipe with whole wheat flour.
Then the next day I made the same recipe with white flour. It is easy!

The bread looks delish and you did a great job with the Christmas cookies. They look very dimensional.

Your breads look wonderful. Good bread is so hard to find.
I love yeast bread! I used my Kitchenaid stand mixer to knead my bread and pizza dough. It works like a charm! Cute little painting of Christmas cookie cutouts! Have a joyful Christmas, Christine!
What an easy recipe and prep, Christine. I'm going to give it a try.
