- In a dough maker set to the dough setting, mix the flour and the yeast mix. Let the maker do it's thing for the time it need, mine takes 1 hour 30 minutes.
The Baking
- Before the dough is done in the maker, preheat your oven to 450°F , place the rack into the middle and place your Dutch oven inside the oven to heat up for about 30 minutes.
- Once the dough is done in the dough maker, gently shape the dough into a round loaf. Using a knife, carefully slice an X in the dough top surface.
- Remove the Dutch oven carefully from the oven. Dust the bottom of the Dutch oven with a little flour to prevent sticking.
