Instructions
- Dissolve the molasses in the water and then sprinkle in the yeast. Mix with a spoon and let it sit undisturbed until the top starts to foam.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the bread flour, walnuts, and salt.
- Add the yeast mixture and cranberries. Mix at low speed using the dough hook attachment until it is combined. (The dough will be quite wet).
- Increase the speed to medium-high and mix for 4 minutes. The dough should be smooth and have some elasticity.
- Transfer the dough ball to a large mixing bowl greased with vegetable oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in a warm (65°-70° F) environment for approximately 9 hours (or overnight). The dough is ready to bake when it has tripled in size, is covered in bubbles, and is noticeably puffy looking.
- Place the Dutch oven in a cold oven and preheat it to 500°F.
- While the oven is heating, dust your work surface with some rice flour. Gently transfer the dough to the prepared surface using a silicone bowl scraper (or silicone spatula). Shape the dough into a ball by folding the edges underneath themselves, rotating the dough ball as you do so.
- Score (make a slit) on the top of the dough ball with a very sharp knife and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Remove the hot Dutch oven from the oven and sprinkle the bottom with rice flour to prevent the dough ball from sticking to it.
- Carefully place the dough ball into the Dutch oven, sprinkle with more rice flour, and bake covered for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and reduce the oven temperature to 450°F. Bake for another 15-20 minutes or until the bread is brown and crusty on top. The bread is done when it registers 195°F on an instant-read thermometer and should sound hollow when you knock on it with your hand.
- Lift the bread from the Dutch oven and place it on a wire rack to cool to room temperature before cutting.
Notes
- The ideal temperature to bloom yeast is between 105°F and 110°F (40°C and 43°C).
- If the yeast doesn’t foam, it may have expired. Discard it and use another packet of yeast.
- Don't use regular flour or all-purpose flour to replace the rice flour when sprinkling on the bottom of the Dutch oven. Regular flour will burn.
- Use a 5 quart or larger Dutch oven.
