How to Make 5 Minute Artisan Bread
- In a large bowl, combine 3 cups warm water (105-115°F), 1 ½ cups bread flour, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ teaspoons salt, and 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast.
- Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until just combined. The dough will be shaggy and sticky.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let it rise at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Transfer the dough to a large, airtight container (like a food storage container) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 weeks.
- When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). If using a baking stone, preheat it in the oven as well.
- Lightly flour your work surface. Remove about 1 ½ cups of dough from the fridge. Gently shape it into a round boule or your desired shape.
- Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet or pizza stone sprinkled with cornmeal or flour.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200-210°F (93-99°C).
- Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
