Instant Pot® Crusty No-Knead Bread image

Great crusty bread requires a great deal of time to make, patience, and the perfect environment. The Instant Pot® cuts the time by several hours and creates the perfect slightly moist, warm environment perfect for activating dough. This goes so great with a good slathering of butter or dipped in a warm bowl of stew!

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 ½ cups bread flour
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 ¼ teaspoons white sugar
1 ½ cups warm water (110 to 115 degrees F/43 to 46 degrees C)
parchment paper
cooking spray
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Whisk flour and salt together in a large bowl; set aside.
  • Combine yeast and sugar in a medium bowl; add water and stir once. Let stand until yeast has bloomed and bubbled up slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, line the bottom and sides of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) with parchment paper that has been lightly coated with cooking spray.
  • Add the yeast mixture and oil to the flour mixture, and stir until incorporated and a shaggy, slightly sticky dough is formed. Add dough to the pot. Close and lock the lid; seal vent. Select Yogurt function; set timer for 4 hours.
  • Remove lid. Dough should be doubled in size, and will have tiny bubbles on the surface. Lift out dough using parchment paper. Turn dough onto a lightly floured sheet of parchment, and form into a ball. Sprinkle top dough ball lightly with flour, and cover with a kitchen towel. Allow to rest until slightly risen, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • While dough is resting, place a Dutch oven with a lid in the oven, and preheat to 450 degrees F (225 degrees C) for 30 minutes.
  • Carefully remove Dutch oven from the oven. Transfer in dough using parchment. Cut slits in the top. Cover and return to the oven. Bake for 30 minutes. Uncover, and bake until golden brown and crusty, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer loaf to a cooling rack; let cool slightly before slicing.

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly: Proof the yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar before adding it to the dough. This will ensure that the yeast is active and will help the bread rise properly.
  • Use the right amount of salt: Salt is an important ingredient in bread, as it helps to control the yeast activity and gives the bread flavor. Be sure to use the amount of salt specified in the recipe.
  • Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough helps to develop the gluten in the flour, which gives the bread its structure and texture. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the bread rise in a warm place: The dough needs to rise in a warm place in order to double in size. This can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the temperature of the dough and the ambient temperature.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature: Baking the bread at a high temperature helps to create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.

Conclusion:

This recipe is a great way to make delicious, foolproof bread in a Dutch oven. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your bread turns out perfect every time. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
