The crackly brown crust here is the result of baking this bread in a dutch oven. By keeping the lid on while the bread bakes, you create a nice steamy atmosphere inside the pot – and the steam is what gives the bread that crispy, magical crust.
I love it firstly because it helps the bread keep its shape while it rises (so it doesn’t spread out into a weird, thin bread blob) and secondly because it leaves the prettiest flour rings on the crust:
SO. FANCY. (PS – No proofing basket? No worries! Just use a mixing bowl and plenty of flour to keep the bread from sticking).
We’ve been making this Easy Crusty French Bread at least once a week lately. (Except for the weeks when we make it twice. Or three times. But who’s counting?)
It’s a fairly quick recipe (only a couple of hours!), which means you can throw it together on a whim.
