This dough is the hands down favorite sourdough bread recipe in my house. It’s so soft, flavorful, widely adaptable, and just plain delicious. I use it for practically everything, with a few minor adjustments as needed.
Flour substitutions, yeast, and proofing time...
This recipe can be made with bread flour, all-purpose flour, or a combination of whole wheat and either bread flour or all-purpose flour. For a whole wheat version of this loaf, I recommend using half whole wheat flour and half bread flour or all-purpose flour. I tend to find that whole wheat flour requires a bit more proofing time because it is rather heavy compared to many other flours.
Most of the time I like to make this recipe with a small amount of added instant yeast to cut down on proofing time. The added yeast is completely optional if your sourdough starter is ripe. I like to use a little bit of yeast to shorten the process when my family is always too excited to wait 18 hours for a slow starter-only rise. If you do not use the added yeast, you’ll have a much slower rise and a more pronounced sourdough flavor, which is worth the wait for sure. My daughters prefer the less sour method however, so that’s what I typically make.
It’s worth noting that because it is an enriched dough (meaning it contains milk, butter, and some sugar), it can take longer rise due to the inclusion of the fats and sugars as opposed to the proofing time of a lean dough (meaning it contains only flour, water, yeast, and salt).
Soft Sourdough Sandwich Bread
Super soft and full of flavor, this loaf bread is perfect for sandwiches or spread with butter. The milk and butter in the dough help give it the soft, rich texture.
- Author: Mandy
- Yield: 1 loaf 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 scant cup (225 grams) warm milk (1 cup minus 2 tablespoons)
3 tablespoons (36 grams) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon instant yeast (optional if starter is ripe)
½ cup (150 grams) sourdough starter, ripe or discard
3 cups plus 2 tablespoons (400 grams) bread flour, additional ¼ cup needed (425 grams total) if substituting all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons butter, very soft and cut into pieces
1 tablespoon melted butter, for brushing baked loaf
Instructions
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the warm milk and the sugar until dissolved.
Add yeast and sourdough starter, stirring to combine.
Add flour and sea salt. Mix on medium-low speed until dough comes together.
With mixer on low speed, add butter pieces one at a time until combined.
Increase speed to medium and let the mixer knead the dough for 5 minutes.
Transfer to a large oiled bowl. Cover with oiled plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled, about 2 hours if using the optional added yeast. (If using only starter, this proofing time takes 12-18 hours, which yields a beautiful dough with a more pronounced sour flavor.)
Turn proofed dough out onto a clean counter top and stretch it several times to develop the gluten. Roll it tightly into a loaf, pinching the seams together. Transfer to an oiled loaf pan and cover with oiled plastic wrap to rise again, about 1 hour or until dough is about 1-inch above the rim of the pan (this step will take a few hours if not using the additonal yeast).
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Bake at 350° for 35 minutes until golden and internal temperature reaches 190°-200°F on an instant-read thermometer.
Remove from oven and immediately brush top with melted butter. (Do not skip this step as it is key to a soft crust.)
Let cool in pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
For best results, measure ingredients by weight.
Whole-wheat version: Use 200 grams whole wheat flour, and 200 grams of bread flour or all-purpose flour.

Hi Richard, I'm sorry to hear of the issues you're having. I'm not sure why your computer isn't giving you the print dialog when you try to use the print function on the recipe card because it's working for me, so unfortunately I'm not able to give you a clear answer regarding that issue at this time. My best advice would be to highlight the recipe text and print the selection from your computer's print dialog. As far as ads go, I apologize if they're bothersome to you. It is the only marketing I allow on my site (no sponsored posts or pop-over ads of any kind) as a measure to help offset the large costs involved with creating and sharing quality content for free and operating and maintaining a website. I don't choose where the ads go, so I've reached out to my ad network and passed along your concerns. They're looking into it. I've also reached out to the recipe card program developer to see if we can get the printing issue investigated as well. I hope you'll consider trying my recipes and don't give up just yet. Thanks for sharing your concerns. Happy baking! -Mandy

My husband is like your daughter, doesn't like the sour taste of sourdough. I have a starter in the refrig, it's been there for years and rarely gets used because of hubby, BUT this recipe!!!!! I made it and he loves it! Nice thing about making this bread is my sourdough starter now can be used instead of discarded. Thank you and thank your daughter for her taste in breads!! One other thing - the recipe is easy to make, the crumb is delicate and crust soft. This recipe is a keeper and will be used often in the future. Thank you again!

Hi! This is my first time making this adaptation to sourdough sandwich bread, and I’m so excited! I opted to leave out the yeast, and after about 14 hours, my dough had risen so beautifully! However, now that I’ve stretched it, molded to a loaf form, pinched seams together, and let rise in my loaf pan they look so small! I know it will take additional time for this to rise further, but do you know if this is normal? Also, do you have an estimate of how long this takes for the second rise? Thanks!
Reply
Mandy
It’ll depend on how active your sourdough starter is, but plan for the second rise to take many hours, often taking about 8 hours or so depending on the ambient temperature. Just keep an eye on it, and remember it’ll rise up some more in the oven as well. The slow rise like that makes for the most FANTASTIC flavor, so it’ll be worth the wait!!

I am going to sound like a broken record here.
I made this exactly as listed. I used no yeast.
Came out great!
I will make one more time to make sure I have it then I can play around.
I really wanted to add honey instead of sugar.
But that wouldn't be same recipe!
I hate reading recipe reviews and people say, well i changed this, added that ect!★★★★★
Reply
Mandy
So glad you liked it! Honey works well instead of sugar for flavor. It doesn’t contribute as much to added softness like sugar does, but it’s still a great loaf!
Happy baking!Reply

Made this for the first time today, with discard and the yeast, and it is absolutely perfect! My son asked for jelly toast before leaving for school but we didn’t have any bread…so when he gets home in an hour this will be ready to slice. The rise was super quick for me so I’m thinking my starter was strong (I’m super new to this!) so I may use less yeast next time. Love that I can make this in just a few hours!!

Hi! Does it slow rises (8-12 hours) in room temperature or in the fridge? And then I assume it needs to do a second rise in room temperature? Many thanks!!
Reply
Mandy
The times listed in the recipe are for room temperature. Rising time will vary based upon how active your starter is though. Refrigeration will slow the process considerably.
Enjoy!Reply
Sherri
Can you make this without any added sugar?
Reply
Mandy
Yes! The sugar does help to speed up the proofing process and yeast activity, so you may find it just takes a bit more time to rise.
Reply
Mandy
It also contributes to the softness of the loaf so there will be a slight difference in texture.

Hi Mandy! Making this loaf now, should the dough be sticky when transferring to the bowl for rising? Or maybe should I add more flour to get it more into a ball and less sticky? Thanks!
Reply
Mandy
I would knead it more and see how it is before adding much more flour. Are you kneading by hand or with a mixer?
It should be sticky, but not overly sticky to the point that it seems wet or that it won’t come together.Reply

Have you ever added any flavoring into this bread? I love this recipe and my daughter wants to add freeze dried strawberries to it... I was thinking crushed way down.. any thoughts?

I honestly have no idea because I’ve never tried adding fruit to it. I’ve added raisins and cinnamon with success, but nothing like a strawberry powder, sorry!

This is now my go-to bread recipe. I make it every week! I don't use any instant yeast, and sometimes I substitute honey for the sugar. I don't have a mixer, so I use my bread maker to mix it and then do the first rise in a buttered bowl. It works perfectly to fit it into my weekend schedule and we get fresh, homemade bread for Sunday dinner.

I used the yeast...can I let it proof for longer if I can't get to it on 2 hours?
Reply

If you need to slow it down, you can put it in the fridge for a while. Otherwise, it might overproof, in which case you would need to punch it back down and let it rise again (it’ll take longer to re-rise because of decreasing yeast activity.

I am just on the second rise with this recipe using straight active starter and all purpose flour. The dough is super dense! It rose overnight nicely but is very thick. Should I add less flour next time. I weighed all ingredients for 3 loaves. Thank you!
Reply
Mandy
It sounds like potentially a combination of too much flour (did you triple the batch all at once? or make a single batch 3x?) Tripling a bread recipe in my opinion can be a bit tricky because it becomes so difficult to mix and knead properly, and also scaling the ingredients can be where things go wrong. Because you subbed all-purpose flour for the bread flour, you needed more flour than usual anyway, so I suspect that tripling it with AP flour did result in too dense of a dough. I have not tested this recipe as a triple batch, only single and double since I can't knead that large of a dough very well. I hope it turned out okay for you, but if you do try it again, I'd say do either a single or a double batch and definitely try it with bread flour. It is totally worth it. Thanks for visiting!

I typically wrap in multiple layers of plastic wrap or parchment paper, and then seal in a zipper bag (if it fits, otherwise I use double layers of plastic bread bags that I ordered on Amazon years ago). When I’m not freezing it though I prefer to just wrap it in beeswax wrap.

This was the second time I've made this recipe. Love, love, love this recipe. It's so soft! And delicious! The best homemade bread ever! I'm new at sour dough starter and still trying to figure out the feeding, discarding thing. I must be doing something right as this came out beautifully. I didn't use the yeast and it took about 7 hours to double for the first rise and about 3.5 hours for the second rise. I do put it in my oven with the light on as my kitchen is always on the colder side. Thanks for a great recipe. Very easy with superb results.

Haven’t completed the whole recipe yet, but on my second rise in the loaf pan. Didn’t use yeast, but had the dough rise in a bowl for 24 hours. Once it was mixed and before the first rise, it seemed really dense and tough. I just kneaded it for the second rise in the loaf pan (it rose and doubled in size in the bowl) it seemed super dense and not light/fluffy and kneadable…Do you think I overmixed it with the dough hook attachment or used too much flour? I used normal King Arthur Flour.

I am about to make this bread for the hundredth time (not literally, but close). I encourage anyone making it for the first time and almost every time, to follow your directions. Get a feel for the bread before making any alterations. The texture of this bread is fantastic.
- I use my dough hook instead of kneading by hand
- I have a large Pyrex bowl with a plastic lid that has proven perfect for letting the dough rise
- I do not use yeast and use the maximum recommended time for raising and proofingAfter a few times of making this recipe I made a cinnamon bread that was fantastic. Once the dough was stretched out, I brushed a beaten egg over the surface and sprinkled it with maple sugar and cinnamon before rolling it up and placing into the bread pan.
Perfect!

I made this sourdough bread last week one plain and one cranberry cinnamon, both were delicious. This morning I made 2 loaves putting cranberries and orange peel and a bit of cinnamon. It is absolutely amazing. It is soooo soft. My starter is very mature, but I still put a tsp. of yeast in it I followed the recipe as written other than the cranberries and orange peel. I used discard today, and it rose beatifully. Thank you, this is my new sandwich bread recipe!!

I just made this yesterday and it turned out great for a first try! Lovely flavour and texture! When baked, per the recipe, the side of the loaf split…a sure sign that it was under proved. But it could also be my flour. Canadian flour is some of the strongest in the baking world! I made a second attempt today (doing a whole wheat version), increasing both of the dough resting/proofing stages by an additional 50% more time. The end result was a perfect 9x5 loaf that had risen and baked without a crack! I’ll be baking this again, very soon!

Very soft sourdough loaf, not too tangy. I doubled the recipe and weighed the ingredients; used only sourdough starter, no yeast. Very silky, easy-to-work-with dough. I used my Bosch mixer to mix and knead the dough. Then I put it into a greased large bowl and did about 4 stretch and folds over about 4 hours. Then it went into the refrigerator, covered, for an overnight rest. The next morning, I divided the dough into two parts to form and rise in my two loaf pans. I turned my oven on to the proof setting, got it a bit warm, then turned it off. Rise took about 2 hours. One loaf pan is larger than the other, and I didn't actually get the proportions right, so one loaf was huge and the other one was slightly smaller than it should have been. Oh well, next time maybe I'll get it right! But this recipe is definitely a keeper. Gifted one loaf and my friends loved it too!

Just made this—starter only, no yeast. I replaced the sugar with honey (same weight) and used coconut milk. Measured all by weight. It’s delicious and soft! It took about 8 hours for the first rise, then about 4 for the second rise (with overnight in fridge in between). My house is somewhat warm so it went a little faster.

I’ve made this bread twice now. Once with the added dry yeast and one with Sourdough starter only.
The one with the sourdough starter took about 7-8 hours to rise after an overnight stay in the refrigerator.

I just wanted to point out that I have tried, on multiple browsers, to use the print function on the recipe card.

I just had to stop by and say Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! I'm a fairly experienced bread maker, and you have helped me solve a years long struggle to find a sandwich bread that is soft, yet sturdy, and is perfect for sandwiches and toast! I usually stick with King Arthur recipes and have tried I know every loaf recipe on their site, but have never been able to find one that was perfect. I love utilizing my starter for most bread recipes, but other sourdough sandwich bread recipes I have tried, I wasn't a fan of the texture and they didn't toast well. Even regular yeast loaves, I've just never found one I was overly impressed with. I make all of my other breads from scratch, but had resorted to just buying sandwich bread since I couldn't seem to find a recipe I liked. Not anymore though!
Here I used around 100 grams of whole wheat flour and the rest bread flour, and did up the hydration a teensy bit because of the WW flour...but no other changes, and I am just amazed at the perfect crumb, softness, but also sturdiness of the slices! We had chicken salad for lunch and it held up amazingly well, and I just toasted a piece for a snack and it was perfect! This bread is definitely going to be my go to loaf recipe from now on!
