This is one of the easiest bread recipes that you will find and it can be done using your dutch oven! No mess, no long time wasting procedures, just a simple mix and fix bread recipe.
1/2 cup warm milk
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 pack dry active yeast, about 2 teaspoons
Mix the sugar and yeast in the warm milk and let rise for about 5 minute
Mix Together:
4 cups All-Purpose Flour + some for dusting
3/4 tablespoon Salt
1 cup Lukewarm water add a splash extra if needed
1 egg beaten
The yeast and sugar liquid
Knead well and let rest for about 1 hour
Use 1 tablespoon Olive Oil for greasing your dutch oven well, then place the dough evenly in a ball in the pan.
Heat your oven to 400F , then bake for 35-40 minutes
You can substitute warm water for the milk, but I find that the milk gives you a richer flavor.
