There is no better way to enjoy soup season than w

There is no better way to enjoy soup season than with a slide of homemade dutch oven artisan bread 🥖 Love making bread for my friends and neighbors! Gluten free, vegan friendly version coming soon!
•••
Here’s the recipe for this delicious Whole Wheat Dutch Oven Artisan Bread!

Ingredients
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon instant yeast
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 ½ cups water plus 1 or 2 tablespoons

Instructions
PREPARING:
Mix together in a large bowl the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and yeast. Stir to combine.
Measure out the water and heat in the microwave until it’s between 105 and 110°F/45°C. Stir in the maple syrup and vinegar. Add this mixture to the flour mixture and stir to incorporate. Use your hands if necessary to incorporate all the flour. The dough will be slightly sticky.

RISING:
Rise #1: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Set aside for 12 to 24 hours (overnight works, but so does setting it aside for the day to bake at night)
Rise #2: After the step above is done, place the dough on a lightly floured surface, and mold it into a round loaf. Place on a large piece of parchment paper in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside for an hour or so to let the dough rise.

BAKING:
About 15 minutes before you’re ready to bake, place a dutch oven in a cold oven and turn the heat to 425°F/220°C.
Once the oven is heated, lightly score the top of the loaf and then grab the parchment paper and carefully place the loaf in the hot dutch oven (be careful because it’s very hot).
Cover and bake for 50 minutes, then remove the lid and bake for another 15 minutes or so until the top is golden brown.
