Equipment

  • Dutch Oven

Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm water ( 105° F to 115° F)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 pkg active dry yeast
  • 5-6 cups bread flour
  • 1 cup cashewmilk (or milk substitute of your choice)
  • 2 tbsp Smart Balance margarine Regular, not light when baking
  • 1 ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ cup Smart Balance margarine melted
  • 1 ½ tsp dried rosemary (2 TBSP if using fresh)
  • 4 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

  • Grease your Dutch oven.
  • In your mixing bowl add the yeast, sugar and water. Let sit for 5-10 minutes or until it gets foamy.
  • Add 3 cups flour, the cashewmilk, 2 tbsp softened butter and salt, beating with a mixer on medium for 2 minutes.
  • Keep adding flour in a little at a time, until a dough ball forms and it does not stick to the sides of the bowl.
  • Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and knead in enough flour to get a smooth, elastic dough.
  • Melt 6 tbsp of the Smart Balance. Add the rosemary and garlic.
  • Pat dough out to 1-inch thickness. If you are having difficulty in getting it stretched out, let it rest for 5 minutes and try again.
  • Cut dough into 1 inch pieces.
  • Dip pieces into the butter mixture and line the Dutch oven with the pieces.
  • Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size-around 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Place lid on Dutch oven. Bake 30 minutes, then take lid off for last 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Cool in Dutch oven for 10 minutes. Brush top of bread with the remaining 2 tbsp melted butter and sprinkle with kosher salt.
