Description
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
1 cup warm water
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup sliced almonds
Zest of 1 orange
1 tablespoon honey
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and instant yeast. Stir in the warm water and honey until a rough dough forms.
Add the dried cranberries, sliced almonds, and orange zest, mixing until evenly incorporated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rest at room temperature for 12-18 hours, allowing it to rise and develop flavor.
Once risen, turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently shape it into a ball. Let it rest for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a Dutch oven inside to heat for 30 minutes.
Carefully transfer the dough into the preheated Dutch oven, cover, and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the lid and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
