It uses very few ingredients, requires no bakery skills and has been called the “best-tasting bread” that everyone loves.

Alexandra said: “If you love sandwiches and toast, you should try making my peasant bread in a loaf pan.”

Method: 

1. In a large bowl, combine three cups of flour, and one-and-a-half teaspoons each of salt, sugar and yeast.

2. Add one-and-a-half cups of lukewarm water and stir until a sticky dough ball forms.

3. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and let the dough rise in a warm spot for two hours, or until doubled.

4. Use two forks to release the dough from the sides of the bowl and shape it into a rough ball.

5. Pour one tablespoon of olive oil over the top and turn the dough to coat.

6. Transferred the loaf to a buttered loaf pan and let it rise for an hour until the dough crowns the rim of the pan.

7. Transfer the pan to a 190 degrees Celsius oven for 45 minutes then turn the loaf out onto a cooling rack.

8. Let the loaf cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
