Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 1/4 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp everything bagel seasoning, divided
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, salt, and 1 Tbsp of everything bagel seasoning.
  2. Add the warm water and stir with a large fork until combined. It will look pretty shaggy.
  3. Cover with saran wrap and let it sit for 12–24 hours in a non-drafty place.
Shaping and Baking
  1. When ready to bake, sprinkle some flour on a good-sized square of parchment paper.
  2. Turn your dough out onto the parchment paper and shape it into a ball.
  3. Cut an X in the top of the loaf and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat your oven to 450°F, placing a Dutch oven inside to heat.
  5. Carefully lower the dough into the Dutch oven, brush with water, and sprinkle the remaining everything bagel seasoning on top.
  6. Cover and bake for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 5–10 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Transfer to a cooling rack and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For a healthier version, use half whole wheat flour. This bread can be frozen for up to 3 months and reheat well in the oven or toaster.
