[@betterlivingonabudget]

I just found your channel with this video popping into my feed. I love artisan bread, so had to watch!

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@dawnziccardi8205]

This looks delicious!🍞 I've always wanted to make a loaf like this. Thanks for sharing!

[@dawnziccardi8205]

I made this today and it was an absolute fail. I think my water was too hot and it killed the yeast. The bread never rose and it didn't cook properly. I was so looking forward to this.

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

I hope you enjoy!!!

[@AmenYeshua]

meant to be warm/tepid water. Not sure why she said hot?

[@FoodHow]

Wow, your no-knead artisan bread recipe is fantastic! It's so simple and perfect for busy folks. I love the idea of customizing it with different add-ins like garlic or rosemary. Plus, it's super cost-effective. Can't wait to try it out. Thanks for sharing

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

You are SO welcome!! It's actually borderline life-changing in our household. I love it and hope you enjoy it too. Thanks for the sweet note!

[@barbarafallin2038]

I add cheddar cheese to mine and sometimes 🥓 bacon

[@juliepoppe6294]

Great recipe!

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Hope you enjoy!

[@MinooMakesStuff]

It’s unreal how cheap and easy it is to make bread at home! I never buy mine from the store 😮

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

You're absolutely right! Amazing!!!

[@katereznikov8792]

Looks great ❤

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Hope you enjoy! Thanks so much for watching!

[@jepolch]

Looks amazing! What if you brushed the top with oil or butter before baking? Would it make crispy crust?

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Good idea!

Happy to find your channel

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Thanks so much for coming!

[@kathybray7156]

5 minute crazy bread ❤😊

[@AmenYeshua]

Better to use tepid water and not hot. Yeast prefers it.

[@michelejashinsky8409]

Throw a couple ice cubes in at the end after covers off it gets crunchy

[@thsc9119]

Hmm... I would think that dry heat, by removing moisture, would be what promotes crunchiness.

[@caronstout354]

Could you use air fryer parchment liners in the dutch oven instead of a sheet?

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

That is a great question. I actually have never owned an air fryer so I can't say from personal experience. Google says yes, but I don't have any personal experience on this. Good luck and enjoy!

[@Sandra-ij9fk]

I'm sure this will be great. Please say what kind of flour, AP or SR. Some new bakers might want to know.

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Great note. All purpose flour is what I use.

[@bonitaamorim2984]

OMG you remind me so much of Reese Witherspoon lol. Great recipe!!! So .47 cents, assuming you are in the US, equals about $10.47 cents in Canada🤣🤣🤣🤣 I will give it a go...thanks!

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Thanks so much for watching! Enjoy!

[@andreaashley8783]

I bet it would be great if you substituted the salt with an envelope of dry onion soup mix. I'm going to try this on my next loaf 🍞❤

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Great idea!

[@WinadaEffendi]

Did you set the oven with bottom heating only or top and bottom ?

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

I just used my normal bake setting (not convection, not top only or bottom only). I believe this is top and bottom baking. Thanks so much for watching!

[@thesage1096]

if i dont have a dutch oven, would it work if i just plop the dough out on a regular baking sheet ?

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Great question. I had a family member try that and just cover it with foil. It turned out ok, but a little more dense and not as good.

[@bestnews4you]

The dough is too floppy to make a rounded loaf; it needs support. An alternative to a Dutch oven is a heavy cooking pot with metal handles. It has to be large enough for the dough to expand but not so large that the dough spreads out over the bottom. If you don't have a lid, try a doubled sheet of aluminum foil; press it down around the sides to hold the steam in (wear oven mitts). Some home bakers use a cast iron skillet to hold the dough and turn a pot upside down over the dough to act as a top. A steel bowl will also work as a bottom or a top. Experiment with what you have. Just make sure the handles on any pot you use can take the heat. I have an old pot that I unscrewed the handles from, and I just keep it for bread. The heavier the pot, the better. Make sure you use the parchment paper to hold the dough. It also makes it easy to lift the dough out when done.

[@umkhwenyana]

Nice bread indeed...and you`re pretty, too!😊

[@mmcm7742]

What’s the brand and model # of your range?

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Frigidaire Gallery gas range. Thanks for watching!

[@gracechan5562]

Can we use hot water that has just been boiled for making this bread Tq

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

I'm guessing boiling water might be a little too hot. I would let it cool for a few 30-60 second) a bit before adding it. That said, I've tried so many cheats and variations of this recipe and it's almost indestructible. So you might give the boiling water a try and see what happens! Thanks so much for stopping by!

[@barbarafallin2038]

If the water is to hot, it will kill the yeast

[@user-yz9yg4yx1k]

Boiling water kills the yeast.😢

[@barbarafallin2038]

Nope,that will kill the yeast,I use bottled water

[@billvetter5328]

Turn the parchment paper upside down...

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Absolutely great suggestion!

[@lanaayerov7501]

So easy

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Yes!!

[@incogniko636]

Does the hot water kill the yeast?

[@mdhuff1]

It’s not boiling hot. If you can put your fingers in it without burning, it’s good

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Great question. I use hot tap water from my sink, but it's definitely not boiling. If it's too hot it could kill the yeast or make it more sour (according to google:)

[@hlrtexas]

How many quarts is your baking pot? Thank you. Can’t wait to make❤️

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

I have two that I use regularly: 1. The first is 3.5 quarts and that is the ideal size for this loaf. 2. I have doubled the recipe and made it in a 7.5 quart dutch oven and it turns out perfectly. You just don't want it too big for this loaf or it will spread out too much. I'm sure it would taste good, but it would be more flat. Hope that helps. Enjoy!

[@celiag.2193]

2-3 hours should be sufficient to let it rise

[@evrose]

Nope. Not unless you use a proffing drawer or otherwise lightly heat the dough. I've been making this recipe for over a decade... it needs between 8-24 hours to rise at room temp. Too short a rise and it will be rock hard.

[@ImaOKay522]

That is a Pyrex type or Corning Ware dish you have. Dutch oven is the cast iron pots with lid.

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

You're absolutely right. This is a corning ware dish. The recipe calls for a dutch oven, but this dish acts similar.

[@ImaOKay522]

@@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181 thanks 😊 it's good for new bread bakers to know they don't need to purchase a Dutch oven (they should! I have several!). Metal bread pans can also be used as top and bottom if they fit. I just did this to make a loaf shaped no-knead recipe. Happy Thanksgiving👱‍♀️🍀

[@leonoremoore1159]

why do you not show the cut bread ????

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

GREAT IDEA!

[@LKMNOP]

The big problem with this is it makes a round loaf which looks good but is ridiculous if you want to cut slices for sandwiches.

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

It would definitely make a tiny sandwich! I have doubled the recipe and made an extra large loaf which turns out great. That would work so much better for sandwiches.

[@jamesvoigt7275]

Even in these days of inflation, the ingredients in this loaf are extremely reasonably priced. My husband, however, calculated the cost of the power to bake it. According to him, heating and cooking in the oven costs about twice as much as the ingredients themselves. Bummer.

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Super interesting! Still cheaper than a homemade artisan loaf from the store. Thanks so much for watching!

[@jamesvoigt7275]

Not only cheaper but so much better.@@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181

[@BigMama2022]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@haveyouflossedtoday]

This is healthier than anything from the store. Calculate better health, better energy, longer life, fewer medical bills. The smell of fresh bread baking might be a bonus but also adds to a happier home.

[@thatwiseoldbitchchannel]

At what point do you add the add ins…? And how? Do you just throw garlic cloves or olives in the proofed dough before baking?

[@momlife-thrivenotsurvive9181]

Great question. I have actually added the herbs or garlic or whatever add-ins before AND after and it turns out fine either way. I'd say if you want the bread to have a stronger garlic or herb taste then stir it in with the dough before it sits for the 18-24 hours. Otherwise, I usually stir in my add-ins right before I put it on the parchment paper and bake it. Enjoy!

[@toniapappan]

TY!!!!
