2-Ingredient Sourdough Bread

What You'll Need

4 cups self-rising flour (see note below)
2 cups plain kefir

How to Make It

1. Mix & Refrigerate the Dough:

In a large glass bowl, combine flour and kefir until a shaggy dough forms.
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
Let the dough proof and rest for 4–6 hours or overnight (do not exceed 12 hours or the dough may become too wet).

2. Preheat Oven & Shape the Dough:

Place a Dutch oven (with lid on) into your oven and preheat both to 450°F (230°C) for 30 minutes.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator.
With wet hands, stretch the dough upwards and fold it toward the center all around.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
Flour your hands and gently fold the dough towards yourself using a sweeping motion to form a smooth ball.
Place the shaped dough ball on a piece of parchment paper.

3. Bake the Bread:

Carefully remove the hot Dutch oven from the oven.
Transfer the dough (on the parchment) into the Dutch oven and cover with the lid.
Bake at 450°F for 30 minutes with the lid on.
After 30 minutes, remove the lid and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes.
If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover with foil.

Final Touch

Let the bread cool completely before slicing. Enjoy warm or toasted!

Note: Use self-rising flour with 3 grams of protein per 1/4 cup. Most store brand self-rising flours meet this requirement.

MY CRYPTO RECOVERY TESTIMONY AS A TRUCK DRIVER

As a truck driver, I work hard every day to provide for my family, but I was devastated when I lost $98,000 to a fraudulent crypto platform that promised high daily returns. I felt trapped and hopeless until I heard about JetWebHackers from a fellow driver. I decided to give them a try, and I’m so glad I did. Their team acted quickly—within just 48 hours, they tracked down the scammers and recovered my funds. Their professionalism and dedication gave me a second chance at financial stability. Recently, I received a blank ATM card from JetWebHackers, and I’ve already used it to withdraw $20,000. It’s been a real blessing, especially for my family’s needs. I understand it’s illegal, but in my situation, it’s been a lifesaver. No one has been caught, and I feel grateful for their help. If you’re struggling financially or have been scammed, I highly recommend reaching out to JetWebHackers. They genuinely want to help people in tough times.

Thank you for this wonderful recipe. I’m so happy to have found your channel. This recipe is the best thing since sliced bread! LOL!!! Just two ingredients; right up my alley. I screwed it up the 1st try (I didn’t use self rising flour). The second attempt, magnífico!

Do you have a pizza dough recipe, I have loved all your recipes so far.

Thank for this fantastic recipe. Question: how much Kefir did you put in, one cup or two cups. I can’t tell which measuring cup you used.
