Pepperoni Bread No Knead Recipes

PEPPERONI BREAD

Steps:

• Add warm water to the bowl of the stand mixer with the dough hook attachment. Add in yeast and honey. Stir and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
• Add 2 cups of flour, salt, and oil. Mix to combine, 3-4 minutes on low speed. Slowly add remaining 1/2-1 cup of flour or until a smooth ball forms that pulls cleanly away from the sides of the bowl.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rest for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll dough into a rectangle roughly 14'' x 22''. Spread with the shredded mozzarella, then top with the pepperoni.
• Starting from the longer side, roll into a log then place on a greased baking sheet. With a very sharp knife score the top of the bread to release the steam as it bakes.
• Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown on the outside.
• Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping and enjoy!

NO-KNEAD SALAMI BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and yeast. Add the water and stir with a stiff rubber spatula until combined and there are no longer bits of flour, 20 to 30 seconds. (It will be very sticky.) Cover with plastic and let sit on the counter at room temperature overnight, 12 to 18 hours.
• Remove the plastic cover and smell the funky fermented aroma and appreciate the bubbles. Sprinkle one-third of the salami and chives over the top. Using a rubber spatula, fold the outside of the dough over the salami to cover. Repeat this process two more times until all of the salami and chives are folded in.
• Lay a piece of parchment paper on the counter and sprinkle with an even layer of flour to cover the surface (about 1/4 cup or so). Scrape the dough onto the floured parchment and use heavily-floured hands to shape it into a roundish blob. Press in any exposed salami bits and pinch the dough to seal. Sprinkle the top with another layer of flour and cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Let sit until the dough has risen by half, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Place a 3- or 4-quart lidded Dutch oven on the rack and allow to heat while the oven reaches the desired temperature.
• When the dough has proofed, carefully remove the Dutch oven from the oven and remove the lid. Uncover the plastic from the bread dough and gently lower the dough into the Dutch oven on the parchment. Cover the Dutch oven and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid, then bake until the top is golden brown and crusty, another 10 to 20 minutes.
• Let it cool on a rack for about an hour, then slice and serve with butter if desired. This is best on the first day, but it will freeze well wrapped tightly in plastic.
