Baking artisan bread at home
We use a commercial steam-injected oven at the bakery, but this video walks through the home method: preheating your Dutch oven, scoring your dough, and baking your loaf, using the same steps as your instructions.
The video uses sourdough and different baking times, but the shaping and baking method is nearly identical.
Cool completely before you slice!
Gluten-free bread needs time to fully set. Let it cool on a wire rack for 4 to 6 hours. Cutting too soon will make the crumb gummy or underbaked.

Pro tips
Bonus notes
- Keep your banneton clean. Let it dry fully after use and brush out excess flour with a dry bristle brush.
- Preheat longer than you think. Give your Dutch oven at least 30–45 minutes (an hour is even better) for a hot, consistent bake.
