Yahoo Lifestyle 20 Tried-and-True No-Knead Bread Recipes
Just in time for oven season.
Kneading is the most hands-on process in making bread. That's why no-knead breads are a thing of beauty. If you love bread as much as I do, but really don't have the patience it takes to make a good loaf, no-knead breads work like a charm. Below are all of our best no-knead bread recipes, including cinnamon-raisin, ciabatta, and Dutch oven recipes, and so much more.
Chef John's No-Knead Ciabatta
"This bread is the perfect marriage of a crisp, light crust outside and a chewy yet tender inside. The no-knead part is just a bonus." -Chef John
Herb Batter Bread
"This is the perfect side for all your meals...and you probably have all the ingredients on hand!" -CD Gundersen
Effortless Rustic Bread
"This is the easiest recipe for rustic bread I've ever seen. Luckily it is also the yummiest rustic loaf recipe. Feel free to halve the recipe if you only want one loaf, but beware: it's so addictive you may wish you'd just baked both loaves." -amyw
No-Knead Cinnamon and Raisin Bread
"This no-knead cinnamon raisin bread can be made with just a few pantry items. It takes a little hands-on time to prepare and will make your house smell like a bakery." -Bren
Bialys
"If you like bagels, you're probably going to love these bialys. They're not as heavy and dense as bagels and they have a savory filling, that combined with the chewy, light dough is absolutely magical! I might only be 25% Polish but my take on bialys was 100% amazing." -Chef John
No-Knead Sun-dried Tomato Garlic Basil Bread
"An easy tasty bread made with no kneading. Just beat with a wooden spoon. Eat warm out of the oven or enjoy toasted with butter or in a hearty sandwich." -SPICYGIRL
Buttermilk Crumpets
"This is an American rendition of a British classic. Serve with your choice of savory or sweet toppings, like fruit spread and butter, double Devonshire cream, clotted cream, etc... I love using crumpets as a base for eggs Benedict. If you have an Instant Pot® you can use the yogurt setting and proof the dough much faster!" -thedailygourmet
Dutch Oven Caraway Rye Bread
"Caraway rye bread the way you like it: no-fail, easy to make, no kneading, and no double-rise! Perfect every time." -chalkie
Schlotsky's Bread
"The dough will look resemble a batter, almost pourable. Take care not to add too much flour. If using all-purpose flour, use a little less as it is heavier than bread flour. Great to eat hot from the oven with butter." -Dee
Fabulous Homemade Bread for the Food Processor
"I have made this bread twice and it has become my 'go to' bread recipe. It comes out with a slightly dense crumb, and the oats and whole wheat give it the substance and character one enjoys in home made bread." -poulsbohemianmike
Better-Than-Bakery No-Knead Sourdough
"Just like bakery sourdough bread — if not better! It's crusty, chewy, and tangy. You'll be shocked at how simple it is to create such a professional loaf at home. Baking inside a Dutch oven (set in your kitchen oven) does an excellent job of simulating the effects of a professional bread oven." -hrabbot
Khobz el Dar (Algerian Semolina Bread)
"If you've never tasted Algerian bread, then you should definitely give this very easy recipe a try. Known as Khobz el Dar, it requires no kneading, no special techniques, and only basic ingredients. The result is an incredibly soft bread, slightly sweet, that tastes like brioche. Absolutely delicious." -chouchou65
No-Knead Skillet Olive Bread
"No-knead skillet olive bread is a very easy to make, no-knead, crusty, and delicious bread packed with marinated olives and garlic." -Mitch Hendricks
No Knead Beer Bread
"This really is an easy, fun, and fast recipe, and you'll be amazed at how great the results are, even for the most inexperienced bread maker." -Chef John
Soft No-Knead Dinner Rolls
"Before I popped them in the oven, I brushed the top with melted butter. I can see how an herb or garlic butter would also be good. Quite possibly the most delicious and fluffy yummy rolls I've ever made. Will definitely make again." -Maureen Seel
Batter White Bread
"This was the first time I have made homemade bread and it turned out wonderful. My husband ate half the loaf as soon as it came out of the oven. I did decrease the salt as mentioned in other reviews. Very good bread to eat with a meal. This was very easy and I will make again." -Allrecipes reviewer
No-Knead Artisan Style Bread
"This is a very easy bread to make without any kneading. Bake in a Dutch oven or heavy casserole dish. The bread comes out very crusty and with huge holes throughout, just like at the bakery." -Jewissa
No-Knead Country Bread
"This delicious and gorgeous country loaf is part recipe, part science experiment, and part fun family project when you're all stuck in the house together looking for things to do. Even though it takes many hours to make the dough, the texture you get is incredible. Spread with butter and jam, if desired." -Chef John
Slow Cooker Bread
"Bread made in the slow cooker actually turns out a decent loaf, and it's very easy to make. It is also quick because it requires only one rise; the second rise happens in the slow cooker. Adding seeds or rolled oats not only adds flavor — it also makes it easier to release the bread from the slow cooker." -nch
Chef John's Whole Wheat Ciabatta
"This whole wheat ciabatta is like the old no-knead ciabatta with a higher-fiber makeover. Since I don't have much whole wheat baking experience, I did what any good chef would do: I didn't do any research and just tried to figure it out. I was quite happy with the taste and texture, and going 50-50 with the all-purpose flour provided just enough of that crusty, chewy "normal" bread experience."
-Chef John
