All you need for your ciabatta bread is a few basic ingredients, and a little time. I added a lot of pictures to my <strong>Dutch Oven Ciabatta Bread Recipe<\/strong> to make it more easy to follow, because ciabatta bread is not a recipe I would usually recommend for a beginner bread maker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>January 2022 update, I have created a version of this ciabatta bread for the dutch oven! I'm happy to say that the texture is so perfect in this version. I included a video with directions on how to make dutch oven ciabatta. And, separate directions for non dutch oven ciabatta moved to the notes section of the recipe card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I just got a standing mixer (an AMAZING gift from my husband) and I am BEYOND excited! I feel like a real chef now! I have always dreamed of having a standing mixer in my kitchen and I finally do! So, I have been making soo many bread recipes. I literally made 3 different kinds of dough in the first day I had it. \ud83d\ude42 Can you see I'm excited! One of those was a homemade ciabatta bread recipe that I found online from the brown eyed baker. And to my delight, it came out <em>ABSOLUTELY PERFECT <\/em>the first time! So I have to give her a lot of credit for an amazing recipe and clear directions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few things I changed though: I used bread flour instead of all-purpose flour and I used plain yogurt instead of milk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Think sourdough is complicated?<\/strong> It doesn\u2019t have to be! My <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/how-to-make-a-sourdough-starter\/\">Beginner Friendly Sourdough Guide<\/a><\/strong> walks you through a <strong>simple, no discard method<\/strong> for creating a sourdough starter and baking your first loaf! Plus, it's packed with gut friendly benefits thanks to natural fermentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-homemade-ciabatta-bread-ingredients\">HOMEMADE CIABATTA BREAD INGREDIENTS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Believe it or not, homemade ciabatta bread takes simple ingredients that you probably already have. I love making bread at home and skipping the mile long ingredient list on the back of store bought breads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My homemade ciabatta bread recipe has 2 separate days, the first day you mix a pre-ferment also known as a <strong>ciabatta bread sponge<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>1 cup All purpose flour (just for the sponge pre-ferment)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u215b teaspoon Instant yeast<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00bd cup Water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The next day, you add all the <strong>rest of the ciabatta bread dough ingredients to your sponge:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>2 cups Bread flour <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 \u00bd teaspoon finely ground sea salt <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00bd teaspoon instant yeast <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00be cup water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00bc cup Plain yogurt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>My homemade Dutch oven ciabatta bread recipe takes 2 stretch and folds to make the dough stronger. You can use olive oil for your stretch and folds, or, some people simply wet their hands with warm water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>2 tablespoons Olive oil (for stretching and folding the dough later)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-equipment-needed-to-make-homemade-ciabatta-bread-in-a-dutch-oven\">EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO MAKE HOMEMADE CIABATTA BREAD IN A DUTCH OVEN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Standing mixer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tub for rising the dough<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Parchment paper<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dutch oven<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While you can absolutely make ciabatta bread by hand, a standing mixer saves you a ton of time and muscle power! \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-tips-for-making-the-best-ever-ciabatta-bread-recipe\">TIPS FOR MAKING THE BEST EVER CIABATTA BREAD RECIPE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>MAKE THE SPONGE RIGHT IN THE BOWL OF YOUR STANDING MIXER<\/strong>. Once your sponge has doubled in size, you can add the rest of your ingredients right to it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>COVER YOUR SPONGE TIGHTLY WITH PLASTIC WRAP OR OTHER AIRTIGHT COVER<\/strong>. This helps to create a warm environment for your sponge to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RISE YOUR DOUGH WRAPPED IN A TOWEL IN YOUR OVEN<\/strong>. Keep your oven turned off, but if you have a drafty house, this extra insulation will help a lot with rising ciabatta bread properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DON'T SKIP STRETCH AND FOLD<\/strong>. Stretching and folding bread dough redistributes the yeast and helps to strengthen the dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SPRAY YOUR DOUGH WITH WATER<\/strong> <strong>IF YOU'RE NOT USING A DUTCH OVEN<\/strong>. This is important to create a crispy ciabatta bread without a dutch oven. The spray bottle of water introduces moisture, which creates that signature bread shell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More <a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/bread-recipes\/\"><strong>Homemade Bread Recipes<\/strong><\/a> you're going to love!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/beet-bagels-recipe\/\">Sourdough Beet Bagels<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/rainbow-sourdough-bagels\/\">Sourdough Rainbow Bagels<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/vegan-sourdough-cinnamon-rolls\/\">Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/pink-cinnamon-rolls\/\">Pink Cinnamon Rolls<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/healthy-pumpkin-cinnamon-rolls\/\">Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/homemade-ciabatta-bread\/\">Ciabatta Bread<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/1-hour-focaccia-bread\/\">Ciabatta Bread Rolls<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/1-hour-focaccia-bread\/\">The Best Sourdough Focaccia Bread<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/naan-bread\/\">Sourdough Naan Bread<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/whole-wheat-naan\/\">Whole Wheat Sourdough Naan Bread<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/rainbow-chicken-sausage-tacos\/\">Sourdough Taco Shells<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-homemade-ciabatta-bread-using-a-dutch-oven\">HOMEMADE CIABATTA BREAD USING A DUTCH OVEN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch my new video for a new ciabatta bread technique for a delicious crispy crust and chewy center.

The first stage is the pre-ferment. You will be mixing flour with water and yeast and letting it sit up to 24 hours, so plan accordingly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-step-1-make-the-pre-ferment-sponge\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">STEP 1: Make the Pre-ferment (Sponge<\/span>):<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A sponge is kind of like a sour dough.. except you only ferment it for ~8-24 hours. It gets those yeast activated for a lot of bubbles and rise in your final product. And since it is not fermented as long as sour dough, you won't have that \"sour\" dough taste. I love sour dough, but some people don't ! So this is perfect if you want the texture without the sour!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">HOW TO MAKE A CIABATTA BREAD SPONGE<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mix the ingredients for your sponge together in a large bowl. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>1&nbsp;cup&nbsp;all-purpose flour<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u215b&nbsp;tsp&nbsp;instant yeast<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u00bd&nbsp;cup&nbsp;water at room temperature<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I like to mix them right in the bowl of my standing mixer so I can add the other ingredients the next day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mix with a wooden spoon until a ball comes together. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"sponge before it is fermented\" class=\"wp-image-3819\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-650x867.jpg 650w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-560x747.jpg 560w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-1-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, <strong>cover your sponge TIGHTLY with either plastic wrap or a beeswax wrap<\/strong> (environmentally friendly plastic wrap alternative).

Make sure to check out my complete guide on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/arabic-cooking-at-home\/\">Cooking Authentic Arabic Food at Home<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-faq-s\">FAQ'S <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What makes ciabatta bread different?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike other Italian bread recipes, ciabatta bread is made with a pre-ferment (called a sponge). This extra fermentation time helps to give you that delicious ciabatta bread taste with big airy holes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is the difference between all-purpose flour &amp; bread flour?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bread flour has a higher percentage of protein than all-purpose flour has. This means that you will get more of a rise with bread flour. And because of the higher protein content you will get that iconic chewy ciabatta bread texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you get big holes in ciabatta?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want big holes in your ciabatta bread, you have to stretch and fold the dough every 60 minutes during the first rise of the ciabatta bread to make the dough stronger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you have to be very gentle when you are shaping the loaf during the second rise so that you don't pop any of the holes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can you leave your ciabatta dough overnight?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you need to leave your sponge a good 8-24 hours to ferment, I wouldn't recommend leaving your actual ciabatta dough overnight. If your bread sits too long, the gluten can actually weaken and you will not get a nice rise and texture after baking. Over-proofed bread often has a gummy and crumbly texture because the gluten was over developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some people will leave their dough in the fridge overnight so they can bake it fresh in the morning. Putting your dough in the fridge will slow down the gluten development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Does ciabatta need steam?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes! Ciabatta bread needs steam while baking. Similar to cooking your sourdough bread in a dutch oven in the first part of baking, spraying ciabatta bread during the first couple of minutes help to create that signature crispy shell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"776\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-776x1024.jpg\" alt=\"homemade ciabatta bread sliced on a cutting board\" class=\"wp-image-3781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-776x1024.jpg 776w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-227x300.jpg 227w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-768x1013.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-1165x1536.jpg 1165w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-1553x2048.jpg 1553w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-650x857.jpg 650w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-560x739.jpg 560w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/homemade-ciabatta-bread-5-scaled.jpg 1941w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 776px) 100vw, 776px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you try my<strong>&nbsp;Dutch Oven Ciabatta Bread Recipe<\/strong>, please let me know your thoughts by leaving a rating and comment below!&nbsp;<strong>Ready for more?<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/subscribe\/\">Subscribe to my newsletter<\/a>&nbsp;or follow along on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pinterest.com\/thehintofrosemary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Pinterest<\/strong><\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/thehintofrosemary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/thehintofrosemary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a>,&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/thehintofrosemary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Youtube<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-3827\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"3827\" data-servings=\"2\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-chic\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 3px;\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/new-ciabatta-bread-image-dutch-oven-360x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-250x250 size-250x250\" alt=\"new ciabatta bread image dutch oven\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/new-ciabatta-bread-image-dutch-oven-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/new-ciabatta-bread-image-dutch-oven-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/new-ciabatta-bread-image-dutch-oven-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/new-ciabatta-bread-image-dutch-oven-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/thehintofrosemary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/new-ciabatta-bread-image-dutch-oven-180x180.jpg 180w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Homemade Ciabatta Bread (dutch oven and no dutch oven versions)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\"><span style=\"display: block;\">Homemade ciabatta bread takes a little bit of extra effort, but it is SO worth it!
