Easy, Peasy Crusty NO knead overnight Bread


This bread is so easy even the worst cook/baker in the world can make it. 
It is fool proof. 
Seriously! 
The only thing I hate about this bread is that there is NEVER enough.
Just look at the deliciousness exuding from that crispy, crunchity crust.
The soft pillow like texture from the insides waiting to be slathered in butter... 

Oh wait I already did AND I didn't share

 Don't tell my kids
or the hubs.

Ok you ready for it?!?!

No Knead Overnight bread
      • 3 cups all purpose flour
      • 1 1/4 teaspoon salt
      • 1/2 teaspoon yeast
      • 1 1/2 cup water

Step 1. 
Mix all those bad ingredients together. Cover with saran wrap. Leave over night 12-18 hours. 

Step two. 
Take your dough, which should double in size, out of the bowl. Put it on a heavily floured surface and shape it. Let rest for 30 minutes while your oven preheats to 450 with your dutch oven or other similar type pot. That pot has to be HOT to cook that bread right.


Step three. 
Take your dough and plop that baby into the HOT dutch oven. Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Take the top off and bake for 15 minutes more. 



Take out immediately and cool, eat and enjoy


Mind. Blown. Right???

If you want to get even fancier feel free to add herbs, cheese and other delicious combinations. 

*** I recommend about 3/4 cups for any cheese added and a couple tablespoon for any herbs, peppers or what not.
