STEP 3: SHAPE THE BREAD
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Shape Dough: After the dough has risen, punch it down to release air. Turn it out onto a floured surface and shape it into a loaf or divide it into smaller pieces for rolls.
- Second Rise: Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
STEP 4: BAKE THE BREAD
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes for a loaf or 15-20 minutes for rolls, or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
- Cool: Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
STEP 5: SERVE
- Slice and Spread: Slice the bread and spread the chickpea mixture generously on each slice.
- Enjoy: Serve as an open-faced sandwich, or enjoy the bread and spread on their own.
