No-Knead Dutch Oven Bread

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1¼ teaspoons salt

  • ¼ teaspoon instant yeast

  • 1⅓ cups warm water (about 75-80°F / 24-27°C)

Instructions:

  1. Mix: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and yeast. Pour in the warm water and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.

  2. Rest: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean towel. Let the dough rest at room temperature for 12–18 hours until it’s bubbly and doubled in size.

  3. Shape: Lightly flour a work surface. Turn the dough out and fold it over itself a couple of times. Shape it into a round ball.

  4. Second rise: Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for 1–2 hours until it has puffed up.

  5. Preheat oven: Place a Dutch oven (with lid) in your oven and preheat to 450°F (230°C) for at least 30 minutes.

  6. Bake: Carefully remove the hot Dutch oven. Lift the dough with the parchment paper and place it inside. Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes.

  7. Uncover: Remove the lid and bake for another 10–15 minutes until the crust is deep golden and crisp.

  8. Cool: Transfer the bread to a wire rack and let cool completely before slicing.

Enjoy homemade artisan bread with minimal effort and amazing flavor!
