Sourdough is one of the tastiest and most nutritious breads you can make - but it has a reputation for being both tricky and time-consuming. 10-Minute Sourdough is Vanessa Kimbell's foolproof guide to making sourdough with just 10 minutes of hands-on work. It's perfect for those with busy lives who have neither the time nor the patience to knead, stretch, fold and shape.

 

From Olive, Feta & Rosemary Focaccia to Roasted Barley Malt Bagels, Carrot & Carraway Loaf and Caramel, Walnut & Banana Bread, none of the fuss-free, no-knead recipes requires more than 10 minutes' prep in total (not including time in the oven). Organized into seasonal chapters, with an additional chapter on breads for celebrations, they all follow one master timing plan and many of them can be baked in a pan.
