Easy Crusty Bread

I had to try this when I saw it on Pinterest

In a large bowl mix

3 C flour
1 3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp yeast
1 1/2 C water (I ended up using close to 2)

Cover with plastic wrap and place on the counter for 12-18 hours.  Preheat over to 450F, once preheat toss  your baking pot in with lid.  I used a kitchen aid round like this

Heat for 30 minutes.  While the pot is preheating turn the dough out onto a well floured surface.  Remove pot from oven and place dough inside, cover with lid and bake for 30 minutes.  Remove the lid and bake for 15 minutes more.

Now the bread was a little dense and plain, but so super easy to make. I am going to experiment a bit with different cheses and seeds and see what I can come up with!
