Air-Fryer Sourdough Bread

Ingredients

• 1 cup sourdough starter
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the sourdough starter, sugar, salt, and olive oil and mix until combined.
2. Add in the all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour and mix until a dough forms.
3. Form the dough into a ball and place on a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for 5 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
