No-Knead Rosemary Garlic Bread

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp instant yeast
• 1 ½ cups warm water (about 110°F or 43°C)
• 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tbsp dried)
• 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
• Olive oil, for drizzling

Instructions

1. Mix the Dough:
   • In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and instant yeast. Add the warm water, rosemary, and minced garlic. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
2. First Rise:
   • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let it sit at room temperature for 12-18 hours (overnight is best).
3. Shape the Bread:
   • After the dough has risen and is bubbly, flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Fold it over a few times to shape it into a ball.
4. Second Rise:
   • Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper. Cover it with a kitchen towel and let it rise for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
5. Preheat the Oven:
   • About 30 minutes before baking, preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a Dutch oven (with the lid) in the oven to heat up.
6. Bake:
   • Once the oven is hot, carefully remove the Dutch oven. Lift the dough using the parchment paper and place it into the pot. Drizzle with olive oil and cover with the lid.
   • Bake for 30 minutes with the lid on, then remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the bread is golden brown.
7. Cool:
   • Carefully remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
