That’s where No Knead Bread, or Dutch Oven Bread, comes in. Crusty fancy looking bread with a soft and fluffy inside that’s just begging to be torn into chunks or slices, heavily buttered, and dipped into your favourite soups and stews .

Easy

As someone who has always loved baking and has been baking for over 10 years now, I get it. Sometimes you want an easier recipe. That’s why I’m such a huge fan of mug cakes , actually.

If you’ve never baked bread in your life, I guarantee you can make this bread.

No-knead bread was pioneered by bread baker Jim Lahey (you can see the post here) about 10 years ago when Mark Bittman published the recipe in theNew York Times. It’s basically the simplest bread recipe possible. You mix all the ingredients until just mixed, cover it, then let it rise. That’s it.

The yeast works it’s magic, then you bake it in a Dutch oven ! You can get artisan style bread with little to no work. You can allow the bread to rise fully overnight, or in just a few hours. As someone who loves bread as quick as possible, we’re making the faster version today. I’ll definitely do the long version very soon, too.

My recipe is a variation of the original. It uses more flour, more liquid to balance it out, and more yeast to compensate for the shorter rise time. And it’s perfect.

5 minutes of active prep time! There is no kneading, no waiting for the perfect rise (twice), and no exhaustive list of instructions to follow.

Next, add warm water and stir. Be sure the water is around 105 degrees F, anything warmer could kill the yeast and prevent the dutch oven bread from rising.

Stir the dough until a sticky ball forms. As you can see in the photo on the right, the dough should hold a ball shape but it will be stick to the touch, and not very smooth.

Easy Dutch Oven No Knead Bread

First cover the bowl with greased plastic wrap and wrap the bowl tightly. Then place a damp tea towel over the plastic wrap. Set it in a secure, warm place in your kitchen to rest for at least 18 hours, preferably 24.

After 24 hours, the no knead bread should look like the left photo below. The dough will rise in the bowl and have holes in it. Flour your hands and press the dough down. Then use a little extra flour to make the dough into a ball, and cover it to let it rest.

No

Important note:The dough ball will be loose and “floppy.” It will be a little difficult to transfer to the baking pan. That is how it should be as this is a very moist bread which is what makes it so irresistible. So you will not have a firm ball, it will look a little flat (as pictured below).

Right before you pull the dough out of the bowl, place the dutch oven into the oven and preheat it to 450 degrees F. Placing the artisan bread dough into the warm dutch oven results in a golden-brown crispy crust. When the oven is preheated, carefully remove the heated dutch oven from the oven, spray with cooking spray and put the dough inside.

This Easy No Knead Bread needs to be baked for 30 minutes covered and 15 minutes uncovered, so a lidded baking dish is critical. I use this Le Creuset 2.75 qt. dutch ovento bake mine, but most round baking dishes with a lid will work.

Once the no knead bread is done baking, remove it from the dutch oven and place it on a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

It! My favorite ways to eat it is with a warm bowl of soup, dipped into this baked goat cheese dip, or in a swirl of balsamic vinegar and olive oil!

Store leftover bread in an airtight container (silicone or plastic bag) for up to 3 days at room temperature or 1 week in the refrigerator. Or, freeze it in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
