Quick Homemade Bread in a Dutch Oven
Recipe by Roxane's Workshop
A soft and crusty homemade bread made with very little equipment (a wooden spoon and a Dutch oven). The dough is prepared in 5 minutes, rises for 3 hours at room temperature then 12 hours in the fridge, and bakes for 45 minutes in a pre‑heated 240 °C oven. Ideal for amateur bakers who want a professional result without a stand mixer.
