Challenger Bread Pan VS Dutch Oven
In this video, I put the Challenger Bread Pan to the test against my trusty Dutch Oven, baking the same sourdough loaf in the two different pans back-to-back. Watch to the end of the video to see how the loaves turn out and to see some differences you have to consider when baking with each pan. #challengerbreadpan #dutchoven

✏️ The recipe that I used for each loaf:
Bread Flour................................................360g
Whole Wheat Flour....................................60g
Whole Grain Rye Flour...............................30g
Water.........................................................300g
Sourdough Starter (100% hydration)......100g
Salt.............................................................10g
Final dough weight comes out to 860g per loaf. When I made each loaf for this video I scaled them out to be 845g each, so I must have lost a little mass along the way through mixing and shaping. Stuff happens!
