Edit: For any of those wondering, the recipe I used is from a cookbook I have, but I found it online! https://www.readersdigest.ca/food/recipes/crusty-homemade-bread/

    I love this method, I use a casserole dish with a lid. That’s a real looker too! 🤩

    Looks amazing! Dutch ovens are such a game changer.

    I will say though that I often had issues with my Dutch oven making the bottom of the bread much darker than the rest. If that is the case for you (second pic looks like it might be?), you can put a baking sheet on the next shelf down from the Dutch oven to shield it and prevent that. Just be aware that the Dutch oven might also preheat slower with it in there. I use an infrared thermometer to check for desired temp and I use my oven’s convection mode during the preheat to ensure it gets all the way up to temp in a reasonable amount of time.
