What you will Learn.....

This course aims to teach you how to make sourdough bread in the most natural, easy way possible. Not faux sourdough, but real sourdough. This method will ensure you achieve all the benefits of a proper sourdough culture within this easy process. No commercial yeast is added.

There's a lot of confusion out there about what sourdough actually is. Sourdough is a fermented bread; it tastes fantastic and is better for many people. Real sourdough bread can be eaten by many who have tummy issues with store-bought fast risen bread. Sourdough needs time to ferment, but you don't have to spend much time doing it.

In this course, you will learn why, when, and how to make an easy overnight sourdough loaf. All the recipes listed are made with her overnight method. Bec explains the easiest ways to make a sourdough starter and how to keep it with minimal effort and fuss. 

Welcome to easy overnight sourdough bread; forget what you've already seen or heard and try this method.
