Overnight Easy Artisinal Bread

This overnight artisanal bread delivers all of the promise of bread without the hard work. Recipe from The Baker Chick via Simply So Good.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Packets Active Dry Yeast
  • 1 Tablespoon of Sugar
  • 1 1/2 Cups Lukewarm Water
  • 3 Cups of Artisinal or All Purpose Flour
  • 2 Teaspoons of Kosher Salt

Instructions

  1. Dissolve packets of yeast into lukewarm water, and add sugar.
  2. Stir mixture and allow yeast to bloom.
  3. When the yeast mixture has a soft, light bubbly surface, combine with flour and salt.
  4. Combine mixture and place in a bowl. Place somewhere warm and cover with either plastic wrap or a warm, moist towel (I use a bartender towel for this).
  5. Allow dough to sit for 8-24 hours. It will rise and get bubbly.
  6. Preheat oven to 450* and place dutch oven or casserole dish in the oven to preheat.
  7. Turn dough onto a well floured surface and shape into a ball. Allow to rest.
  8. When the dutch oven has preheated, carefully remove and place dough into it.
  9. Return to oven and cover with lid for 30 minutes.
  10. Remove lid and continue to bake for an additional 7-15 minutes.
