New to bread making? This is the easiest homemade bread recipe ever. 4 simple ingredients and no kneading--bake in a dutch oven or loaf pan. Yum!
Just like any family with kids, we go through a lot of bread. Sandwiches! Toast! More sandwiches! And then the entire loaf is gone.
While we love my sandwich bread and French toast made with cinnamon-swirl bread, sometimes a heartier loaf is in order.
This no-knead bread is so easy to make, and it's strong enough to stand up to all the toppings you can pile on it. I make it in a 3 quart dutch oven, but you can also make it in a large covered loaf pan (ie, one loaf pan stacked on top of the other).
Easiest Homemade Bread Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together flour, water, yeast, and salt.
Cover and let it sit in a warm place for 6-12 hours, until it rises and gets bubbly.
Scrape directly into your greased dutch oven, saucepan, or loaf pan and bake.
After 45-60 minutes, you'll be greeted with the easiest homemade bread you've ever made.
Enjoy your bread toasted with homemade crock pot apple butter or strawberry freezer jam. Yum!

A dough whisk is much easier to use for mixing than a spoon or fork. If you don't have a 3 quart dutch oven or saucepan, you can use a larger oven-safe pan. The loaf will be a little wider and not as tall--but still delicious. If baking in a loaf pan, you'll need an oversized loaf pan (this is my favorite). I like to prepare the dough right before bed and let it sit in the oven with the light on all night. In the morning, it's ready to bake.
