I have made this bread 4 times now and each and every one of them come out perfect. The only thing I have to say is I agree with Lacey about watching your oven. Mine only takes 25 minutes max and I have no idea why because I have a gas oven and I usually have to adjust the temp higher but not with this one. Might have something to do with warming the cast iron Dutch oven. Either way it’s so easy and amazingly delicious!!!
