No-Knead 5-Minute Homemade Bread

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
• 1 ½ teaspoons salt
• 1 ½ cups warm water (about 110°F)

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
2. Add warm water to the flour mixture and stir until a shaggy dough forms.
3. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest at room temperature for about 3 hours.
4. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a Dutch oven or heavy lidded pot in the oven to heat up.
5. Carefully place the dough into the hot pot, cover with the lid, and bake for 30 minutes.
6. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
7. Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
