Baked some bread again. Messing around with whole wheat and other flour. Just to mix it up a bit. It's not as "air-y" as it could be, but it's still good. 

Making bread relaxes me

google or yt search "5 minute baguette". 

Basic bread recipe. Flour, salt, water, yeast. Add a tiny bit of sugar if you don't like to wait for 6-8 hours for it to raise. You don't need to shape it like a baguette. I shaped mine like a "pain" (according to @theonlycakeone). Don't be afraid to mess around with different types of flour (wholewheat or rye makes the bread a bit more soggy though). Cover with a wet cloth after the oven (10min or so). There, you can now make bread. 

It's LITERALLY 5 minutes of actual work (as the title says).

Telling you a trick to get a golden/more crunchy surface.
It's all about steam in the oven.
Trying putting a ice cube in your baking tray then that converts into steam and you will get a golden texture on your bread.

It is really inviting, congratulations! If you want it more airy you'll still maybe want to wait longer before baking.

If you'd like to experiment with a different recipe, I give you this Italian recipe for pizza bread that I've made often:

Flour: 1 kg
Fresh brewer's yeast: 2.5 g
Total water: 0.667 L (667 ml)

At the beginning: 500 ml

Gradually (drizzled in): 133 ml

To mix salt and sugar: 33 ml
Salt: 20 g
Sugar: 5 g
Sunflower seed oil: 8.3 g

Looks fantastic 

Eating homemade breads relaxes me lol. Love it
