Onion bread not only makes an ideal accompaniment to soups, cheeses and salads, also makes great sandwiches plain or grilled with roast beef, or ham. This crisp onion bread is delightfully easy and simple to make and produce a fantastic golden crust and soft crumb. I used store-bought crisp fried onions in this recipe, but you can definitely make your own or use some leftover onion rings.

StarterDough
  • 50 g Organic rye flour
  • 60 ml Water
  • 14 g Fresh yeast, crumbled (or 7 g Dried yeast)
  • 1 tsp Coconut sugar (or raw brown sugar)
  • 300 g Organic bread flour plus extra for dusting
  • 210 ml Water, room-temperature
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked salt (or herb salat or regular sea salt)
  • 60 g A mixture of seeds (poppy, sesame, sunflower and linseeds)
  • 5 tbsp Crispy fried onions
  1. For the starter, whisk together the rye flour and water in a bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and leave it on your kitchen counter overnight or up to 18 hours.
  2. Mix crumbled fresh yeast with coconut sugar in a bowl and set aside for 10 minutes. In the mixing bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add in starter, flour, water, smoked salt, seeds, crisp onions and yeast mixture. Stir at slow speed until a dough roughly formed, about 5 minutes. Increase the speed and knead until smooth and elastic. Cover with a plastic wrap and set aside at a warm place for 50-60 minutes.
  3. Dust a round 9-inch banneton basket thoroughly with flour. Alternatively, line a bowl with a non-terry kitchen towel dusted with flour. Turn out the dough and gently shape the dough into a round ball. Pinch seam togethe and transfer the dough to the prepared basket, seam-side up. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise 50-60 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven with a bowl of water at the bottom rack and baking stone in the middle rack to 220C/425F for an hour. Turn the dough out onto a bread peel dusted with flour. Score the top with a lame or very sharp knife in any pattern you like.
  5. Slide the bread onto the baking stone and bake for 35 minutes. Open the oven door and spray the bread with water and bake for a further 10 minutes till golden brown and crispy. Cool on a wire rack completely before slicing.

Wow, that's a beauty! You're making me long for some homemade bread. It's too darn hot this week, but hope to break out some yeast soon.

Me fascina hacer pan casero Angie!! Ayer hice uno con semillas Chia. Tu receta se siente fabulosa hasta para untar con un queso cremoso o salsa para un buen trago como copetín.
Siempre bonita tu propuesta y gustosa!
Gracias!!
Buen apetito!!

I am fascinated by your bread Angie. It looks amazing, I am wondering why you leave the flour and water on the bench overnight without the yeast in it for rising?I am also interested that you spray it with water just before the last 10 minutes of baking. Does that help it to crisp up? A great recipe, thanks.

@HAPPY RETIREES KITCHEN
Hi Pauline, you don't need yeast and can leave the mixture for up to 24 hrs. The mixture doesn't bubble up much, but it adds flavour and aroma to the final dough. However, if you are in a rush, add a tiny pinch of yeast from the main dough to the starter and leave it for 2 hrs. Yes, spraying water helps not only with getting a nice brown colour, also a crunchy crust. The sound of cutting that bread is just so satisfying!!

I'd probably eat the whole loaf before you even cut it LOL I wish I could order a loaf a week from you, I do ever so adore me pastries, but don't have time to make them myself. I use dried onion too in my cooking, do you have them there? Very nice and fragrant for soups and rice.

Wow, this bread looks perfect! And you made your own starter - I always admire that especially because I've never done that myself. Also, loving the addition of rye flour.
