🍽️ How to Make It :

1️⃣ Mix the Dough:

In a large bowl combine flour, salt, yeast, dried cranberries, and chopped rosemary. Add warm water and stir until a shaggy dough forms. This simple step creates the best no-knead bread, easy artisan loaf, and beginner-friendly baking recipe.

2️⃣ Let the Dough Rise:

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a towel and let the dough rise at room temperature for 12–18 hours until bubbly and doubled in size. This slow rise develops flavor for the ultimate rustic bread, bakery-style loaf, and overnight bread recipe.

3️⃣ Shape the Dough:

Lightly flour a surface and gently shape the dough into a round loaf. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle rosemary and sea salt on top for a flavor-packed artisan bread, easy homemade loaf, and rustic bakery favorite.

4️⃣ Bake the Bread:

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) with a Dutch oven inside. Carefully place the dough into the hot pot, cover, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove lid and bake another 10–15 minutes until golden and crisp for the best crusty bread, homemade artisan loaf, and perfect bakery-style crust.

5️⃣ Cool & Serve:

Let the bread cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with olive oil, butter, or cheese for the ultimate comfort bread, easy homemade bakery loaf, and crowd-pleasing appetizer.
