Dust the work surface lightly with the remaining 1/4 cup all-purpose flour. Scrape the dough onto the surface and knead for about 1 minute, adding additional flour as needed, to form a loaf. Transfer to the prepared pan, cover with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let stand for 10 minutes. Slash the top of the bread lengthwise with a paring knife to help it rise.

Bake the bread, rotating the pan once halfway through, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and an instant-read thermometer registers 190°F, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn the loaf out onto a wire rack and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
