If you haven’t picked up yet, I love baking and cooking from scratch and so this Homemade Onion Bread of course had to be added to the list. With an extremely simple dough recipe made from whole-wheat flour, milk for moisture, active dry yeast, 1 egg, a drop of sugar, sour cream, crispy fried onions, salt and some oil, who kneads a bakery, am I right!
A slightly chewy crust with a soft, crispy onion center that I can eat, slice by slice, with butter melted all over. This recipe is scrumptiously good!
To make Homemade Onion Bread, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large pan, fry 200 g finely chopped onions in 60 g of refined oil. Cook until the onions are reddened, crispy and fragrant.
In a deep dish, gently stir 220 ml of warmed milk with 20 g of granulated sugar and 11 g of active dry yeast until combined then, cover and set aside for about 10 minutes to activate.
In a mixing bowl, pour the activated yeast and add 50 g of sour cream, 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix to combine well.
Gradually add most of the 440 g of sifted, whole-wheat flour, mixing in between each addition to combine into a dough.
Just before adding the final amount of flour and once cool enough, add the fried onions along with the oil, to the dough and gently mix to evenly combine throughout.
Add the remaining flour and gently knead into the soft onion dough. Form a round shape, cover tightly with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place for about an hour.
On a lightly floured surface, spread and knead the onion dough for a few minutes then, re-shape into a circle again. Cover with a large plastic cup or bowl, taking care to not touch the outer surface of the dough.
Set the covered dough aside for about 20 minutes to rest and rise until almost doubled in volume.
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice a few cuts along the top then transfer to a lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 375 °F/ 190 °C for about 30 minutes.
Once baked, remove from the oven and cover immediately with a kitchen towel. This helps to soften the crust.
Slice and serve slightly cooled but still warm!
