Almost No-Knead Bread Recipe

Perfect for busy schedules, this recipe requires only a few simple  ingredients and a bit of patience for a crusty, artisan-style loaf that  will impress your family and friends.

INGREDIENTS

– all-purpose flour – salt – instant or rapid-rise yeast
 – water – mile-flavored lager beer

STEP 1

Whisk flour, salt and yeast together in a large bowl. Add water, beer,  and vinegar. Mix until a shaggy ball forms. Cover bowl with plastic wrap  and let sit at room temperature 8 to 18 hours.

Lay an 18 x 12 piece of parchment paper  inside a 10-inch skillet and spray with cooking spray. Transfer the  dough to a lightly floured counter and knead by hand 10 to 15 times.

STEP 2

Shape the dough into a ball. Transfer seam  side down to the prepared skillet and spray the surface of the dough  with oil spray. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise until  doubled in size, about 2 hours.

STEP 3

Thirty minutes before baking, adjust the  oven rack to the lowest position and place the Dutch oven (with lid) on  the rack, and preheat the oven to 500 °F.
