This is a simple homemade bread requires only four basic ingredients and very little hands-on work. The result a rustic loaf with a crisp, golden crust and a soft, airy interior.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1½ cups warm water
- Extra flour for shaping
Steps to make it:
- Combine the dry ingredients.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, instant yeast, and salt. - Add the water.
Pour in the warm water and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until a sticky, shaggy dough forms. Make sure no dry flour remains. Add any additional water or flour if needed for right consistency. - Let the dough rise.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Leave it in a warm place for approximately 2 to 3 hours, or until the dough has doubled in size. - Preheat the oven.
Place a Dutch oven with its lid inside the oven and preheat to 450°F (230°C) for approximately 30 minutes. - Shape the dough.
Lightly flour your work surface and hands. Turn out the dough and gently fold the edges toward the center to form a round loaf. Avoid kneading heavily, as this can remove the air from the dough. - Prepare for baking.
Place the shaped dough on a sheet of parchment paper and lightly dust the top with flour. Allow it to rest for 20–30 minutes while the Dutch oven finishes heating. - Bake covered.
Carefully transfer the dough and parchment paper into the hot Dutch oven. Cover and bake for 30 minutes. - Bake uncovered.
Remove the lid and bake for another 10–15 minutes, or until the crust is deeply golden brown. - Cool before slicing.
Transfer the bread to a wire rack and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before cutting.
