Overnight No Knead Bread
I am so excited to share this recipe with all of you! I make this super simple no knead bread multiple times a month, while there are a lot of recipes for smaller rounds I really wanted to use my 7 quart Dutch oven to bake it so I developed this recipe!
What is Artisan Bread? Well there is not real standard definition but the term refers bread that is made in small batches with simple ingredients and usually has a longer fermentation time and a higher hydration. This bread has a springy texture with large air pockets throughout and a crisp crust.
For this recipe you will need a few things: a Dutch oven or any pot with a lid that can withstand 450 degrees Fahrenheit, a kitchen scale and a little patience. I love this recipe because it is so beginner friendly and has countless flavor possibilities!
