This gorgeous bread is a doddle to make. The rising happens inside the Dutch oven, which also locks in the moisture to create a super crusty loaf!
Prep Time
10 min
Cook Time
1 hr
Total Time
1 hr 10 min
Ingredients
- 300 g water
- 1 sachet instant yeast - or - 25 g fresh yeast
- 500 g flour (in France we use plain flour, and you can use bread flour, or a mixture of flours including wholemeal, chestnut flour, etc.)
- 10 g / 2 tsp salt
- a high-temperature-resistant Dutch oven (iron, ceramic, Pyrex, etc.)
- 2 lengths of baking paper
Instructions
- Add water and yeast to TM bowl and heat warm 37°C/2 minutes/Speed 2.
- Add flour and then salt and knead 5 minutes/dough setting.
- Remove dough from bowl and form into a ball. Gently wet the ball of dough with your hands. Cut crosses into the top of the ball and dust with flour.
- Cut two lengths of baking paper and arrange them in an X on your worktop. Place the ball of dough on top. Pick up the paper and transfer it and the dough into the Dutch oven.
- Put the lid on and place your Dutch oven in a cold oven. Bake at 240°C for 1 hour.
- Remove from oven (careful, extremely hot!), pick up the papers and remove your totally gorgeous loaf. Cool on a rack and enjoy!

Wow, mummygoddesss, so pleased this Super Fast Dutch Oven Bread rescued you and made you and your guest a lovely loaf!
It worked extremely well, thank you. Was worried about lack of proving time but amazingly it rose whilst cooking. The texture was light and fluffy and the crust was crispy. Rescued me, within the hour, when a friend dropped in unexpectedly for supper.
Thank you madame Thermomix.

Hi Madame Thermomix, just got back from vacation and had no bread in the house, so I tried this recipe. I was surprised by how easy it was and how good it tasted, although if I have more time I prefer the taste of bread that has had a chance to rise. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Will keep it in mind when I need bread in a pinch! It really did take just one hour! 🙂
