Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1½ teaspoons of sea salt, and ½ teaspoon of instant yeast. Gradually add 1½ cups of warm water, stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
- Gently fold in ½ cup of chopped fresh cranberries and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh rosemary to the dough.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 12 to 18 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and place a Dutch oven inside to heat up. Shape the dough into a ball and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
- Carefully drizzle some olive oil inside the hot Dutch oven. Transfer the dough onto parchment paper and place it inside the pot.
- Cover the Dutch oven and bake for 30 minutes, then remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
- After baking, allow the bread to cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
