Ciabatta Buns Ingredients

Method

Bun Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Mix until a dough forms. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    First Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  5. 5

    Shape the Buns

    After rising, punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a bun and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  6. 6

    Second Rise

    Cover the buns with a cloth and let them rise for another 30-40 minutes until puffy.

  7. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  8. 8

    Bake

    Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Allow them to cool on a wire rack.
