🧾 Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (optional, but helps flavor)
  • 2¼ teaspoons instant yeast (1 packet)
  • 1½ cups warm water (not hot)

✨ Optional add-ins (for lovers of flavor):

  • Garlic powder

  • Seeds (sesame, sunflower)

🥄 Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, sugar, and yeast.
  2. Pour in the warm water.
  3. Stir with a spoon until a sticky, shaggy dough forms.
    ❌ No kneading.
    ❌ No touching with hands.
  4. Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap.
  5. Let it rest at room temperature for 2–3 hours (or overnight for deeper flavor).
  6. Preheat oven to 425°F / 220°C.
  7. Grease a loaf pan or baking dish.
  8. Pour the dough directly into the pan.
  9. Bake for 35–40 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Cool slightly… then slice and enjoy 🤤

🔥 Methods (Why This Works)

  • No kneading needed because time does the work
  • The sticky dough traps air naturally
  • High heat creates a crispy crust
  • Steam from the wet dough keeps the inside soft

Perfect for beginners, busy cooks, and anyone who loves easy wins 🙌
