The first time I made Dutch oven bread, I was overwhelmed with how well the bread turned out.

Servings: 1 loaf
Calories: 1698kcal
Ingredients
- 3½ cups Flour
- 2 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tbsp Instant Yeast
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1½ cups Water
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients together in a large bowl. Mix until a dough forms.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise to at least twice its size.
- Pour the dough out onto a floured surface. Shape the loaf and place the seam side up on a floured piece of parchment paper.
- Cover with a damp kitchen towel, and allow to rise in a warm place for about an hour.
- Place your Dutch oven in the oven and preheat to 450ºF (230ºC).
- When the dough is ready and the oven is hot, remove the dutch oven. Spray the inside with a vegetable spray and sprinkle corn flour to prevent the loaf sticking.
- Roll the dough into the Dutch oven, cover and replace in the oven. Don't worry if your bread looks a bit deflated when it goes in the pot.
- Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the lid and bake a few minutes longer to brown the top if necessary.
- Remove, and place the loaf on a cooling rack and allow to cool.
