Problems With Other No-Knead Bread Recipes
Previously I’d been making no-knead cast-iron baked Boule Bread. It was delicious too.
But that recipe requires you to heat a flat pan at the same time as you preheat the oven, tossing in water at the last minute to create steam.
That steam got between two glasses of my oven door & dripped down the glass. It’s nigh impossible to clean without disassembling the whole oven door!
So I’m looking for an easy no-knead skillet bread recipe that doesn’t require that step.
Easier No-Knead Skillet Bread Recipe
Then I found this even easier recipe for rosemary-flavored skillet bread. And heck, I’m able to flavor it with minced fresh rosemary from my garden.
Y’all know that an easy no-knead stir-rise-bake bread recipe is gonna be a fave in my Homestead kitchen!
Bring Homemade Bread As A Hostess Gift
If we’re headed to someone’s home for a dinner party and need something to bring, well, you really can’t get easier than this bread.
Really, measure, mix, rise, bake – DONE! And our hosts are always excited about homemade bread.
Oh yeah, let ’em think I slaved in the kitchen for this flavorsome delight, I don’t mind…
Go Ahead, Make TWO!
But you know me, if I’m gonna have that oven fired up I’m gonna put it to good use!
So I typically double the recipe and pull out both of my 10″ cast-iron skillets instead of just one.
One loaf will be topped with olive oil and coarse salt & I’ll add fresh minced rosemary with the olive oil & coarse salt to the other one.
Something for everyone!
Easy Homemade Bread Dipping Oil
This bread is also perfect for tearing off pieces to dip into flavored olive oil. The ingredients for bread-dipping oil are simple:
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
- 2 Cloves Pressed Garlic
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt & Pepper to Taste (½ teaspoon each for me)
This makes the perfect light & flavorful dipping oil and it’s CHEAP!
Try This Easy No-Knead Skillet Bread Recipe!
I’ll share the no-knead skillet bread recipe below.
But I highly recommend you do as I do & double the recipe! Two loaves of fresh, homemade bread for near the same effort as ONE?
Yes please!

Ingredients:
- 2-1/4teaspoonsActive Dry Yeast
- 2CupsLukewarm Water
- 2teaspoonsKosher Salt, ( + extra to sprinkle on top)
- 4-1/3CupsAll-Purpose Flour(I use the scoop-to-measure method instead of spoon-into-cup method on this recipe...)

Instructions
Instructions:
Combine yeast, warm water & pressed garlic in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, rosemary & salt. Stir until combined.
Stir the flour into water mixture one cup at a time & mix until completely incorporated.
Cover dough with greased wax paper (I use the bowl's lid that is not snapped completely tight.) Allow dough to rise for 1 hour.
Lightly oil the bottom of a 10" or 12" cast iron skillet.
Do not punch down the dough but sprinkle flour on top of the dough (it will be sticky). Cover hands with flour & quickly, roughly shape dough into a flattened circle.
Quickly scoop up shaped dough & place into greased skillet, pressing sides to reshape if necessary.
Cover loosely with a greased wax paper, and allow to rise 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
Drizzle olive oil on the dough & make a couple of slashes in the top of the dough with a knife. Sprinkle top with coarse salt and minced fresh rosemary if desired.
Bake 35-40 minutes, or until the top is a nice brown color.
Remove from oven and let cool in pan 5 minutes.
Then place bread on a baking rack & cover with clean kitchen towel to allow to cool completely
