Garlicky No Knead Bread

Peel 2 bulbs of garlic and place in small oven-safe container

Pour olive oil into container until garlic is completely covered

Cook for 90 - 100 minutes; garlic should be super smooshy and golden brown

Put the garlic in a small bowl (I would recommend pulling them out with a fork so you don’t carryover any of the olive oil because it could create issues baking)

Smash the garlic really well until it’s like a paste

In a large bowl, combine bread flour, salt, and yeast - stir well

Add in 1 3/4 - 2 cups of very warm water (pretty much as warm as you can get it from your sink; too hot will make the yeast sad)

Combine your bread mixture (you almost need to use the handle side of a spatula because it’s hard to stir). It should be super sticky and kind of wet

Add in garlic, nutritional yeast and basil - mix until very well combined

Cover bowl and allow the dough to rise over the next 3 hours. Check after an hour and make sure it’s rising. At the end, it should be quite a bit larger than when you started

Pre-heat oven to 450 ºF

Put dutch oven in pre-heated oven and keep in the oven for 30 minutes

On a piece of parchment paper, sprinkle some flour over the parchment paper, and plop the dough on it. Sprinkle some more flour on top of the dough. Fold dough in a couple of times (use a scraper or something metal and flat) until it’s no longer that sticky and it’s kind of a ball shape

Put dough (in parchment paper) in the heated dutch oven

With lid on, cook for 30 minutes

Take lid off, and cook for an additional 10 - 15 minutes until crispy

Allow to cool and enjoy
