Description
A rustic, golden-crusted bread infused with everything bagel seasoning, easy to make with minimal effort.
Ingredients
- 3-1/4 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning, divided
- 1-1/2 cups warm water (about 100–110°F / slightly warm to the touch)
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, instant yeast, salt, and 1 tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning in a large bowl.
- Add the warm water slowly and stir with a large fork or dough whisk until everything forms a shaggy, wet mass.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let rest for 12–24 hours until bubbly.
- Dust a sheet of parchment with flour, turn the dough out onto it, and fold the edges to create a round shape.
- Score the top with a shallow X and let rest for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the Dutch oven to 450°F for at least 30 minutes.
- Brush the loaf with warm water and sprinkle with remaining everything bagel seasoning.
- Carefully lower the dough into the pot and bake covered for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until deep golden brown.
- Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
