Ingredients
- 4 ⅓ cups bread flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
- 2 cups lukewarm water about 80F
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 3/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans or walnuts
Instructions
- In a large bowl1, stir the flour, salt, yeast, and water together in a large bowl. The dough will be shaggy, but be sure to incorporate all of the flour.
- Fold in the dried cranberries and chopped nuts.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
- Let the dough sit at room temperature for at least 8 hours.2
- Turn the dough out onto a floured movable surface. I like to use either a silicone baking mat or a piece of parchment paper.
- Lightly cover the dough with greased plastic wrap.
- Place a Dutch oven with lid3 in the oven and preheat to 450F.
- Once the oven reaches 450F, continue to heat the Dutch oven for 30 minutes.
- Carefully take the Dutch oven out, uncover the dough, and turn the dough into the Dutch oven.
- Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and continue to bake for 5 minutes, or until light golden brown.
- Let the bread cool in the pot to room temperature.

Notes
- The dough is going to rise as it sits, so use a bowl large enough to allow for that rise.
- The dough can sit for up to 48 hours. It will become tangier as it sits.
- Make sure that your Dutch oven has an oven-safe lid and handles.
