Step-by-step overview
Making Rustic No-Knead Rosemary Garlic Bread is as delightful as it sounds. The process is straightforward and does not require extensive kneading, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully while the dough rises. You’ll start by mixing your dry ingredients, followed by incorporating water to create a sticky dough. Once combined, give it some time to rise and develop taste, then bake it to golden perfection in a Dutch oven.
What you’ll need
Gather the following ingredients to whip up this delicious bread:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 1/4 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Olive oil (for greasing)
If you don’t have fresh rosemary on hand, dried rosemary can work in a pinch, though fresh is highly recommended for optimal flavor.
