Easy - Med - HardQuick & Easy Bread Loaf
No bread-making skills required! This Quick & Easy Bread Loaf recipe is the simplest way to make an artisan bread loaf with a crunchy crust - thanks to the team at Sustainable Wraps.
Ingredients
- 3 cups plain flour or bread flour
- ½ teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 ½ cups warm water
Method
- Combine flour, yeast and salt in a large bowl. Add water and stir until blended. Cover bowl with a beeswax wrap from Sustainable Wraps. Let dough rest for 12-18 hours at room temperature.
- Flour a flat work surface. Place dough, sprinkle it with a little more flour and very gently fold it over on itself once or twice. Put on parchment paper and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- While dough is resting, preheat oven to 230°C. As the oven heats, put a covered pot (cast iron, enamel, ceramic) inside to warm up.
- When the dough is ready, carefully remove pot from oven. Pick up parchment paper with dough and place directly in pot. Cover with lid and bake 35-40 minutes, then remove lid and bake another 10-15 minutes, until loaf is golden and browned.
