No-Knead Dutch Oven Bread
The easiest artisan loaf there is: stir it together the night before, let time do the work, and bake a bakery-worthy crust in your Dutch oven.
Instructions
- Whisk the flour, salt, and yeast in a large bowl. Add the water and stir with a spatula until a shaggy, sticky dough forms.
- Cover and leave at room temperature 12–18 hours, until bubbly and more than doubled.
- Scrape onto a floured counter, fold the edges into the center a few times to form a round, and place seam-side down on parchment. Cover and rest 1–2 hours.
- Meanwhile preheat the oven to 450°F with a covered Dutch oven inside for at least 30 minutes.
- Lift the dough by the parchment into the hot pot. Cover and bake 30 minutes; uncover and bake 12–18 minutes more until deeply browned.
- Cool on a rack at least 45 minutes so the crumb finishes setting.
Baker's tip
Swap 100 g of the flour for organic whole wheat or rye for a nuttier, heartier loaf.
