Homemade bread is a must at my house, the smell of homemade bread is just amazing. It gives a warmth and a cozy feeling in the kitchen that children will remember for the rest of their life.
This No-Knead Bread is super easy to make and you do not need a mixer for this, but you need a Dutch oven. I recommend The Pioneer Woman’s Dutch Oven. It is so cute with the lovely butterfly on top.
If you like, you can add a delicious multigrain to give this bread an even better taste.
Hope you enjoy this loaf. It is super delicious with peanut butter.
