Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sourdough starter
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup warm water (100°F / 38°C)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ½ cup fresh jalapenos, diced
Instructions
- 1. Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter with warm water until well blended. Gradually add the all-purpose flour and salt until fully incorporated.
- 2. Add the Good Stuff: Once the dough starts coming together, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos.
- 3. Knead That Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about ten minutes until smooth and elastic.
- 4. Let It Rise: Place the kneaded dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for about two hours or until doubled in size.
- 5. Shape Your Loaf: After rising, gently punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf or round ball as desired.
- 6. Second Rise: Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover again and let it rise while preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C). This second rise should last about an hour.
- 7. Bake: Bake until golden brown, then allow your cheddar jalapeno sourdough bread to cool slightly before slicing into its crusty goodness.
