Add in all the ingredients into your stand mixer. I put in everything but the starter and water first and finish with those two items last. Using a paddle attachment on a medium speed, mix for 2 minutes. The dough will come together but will not be a dough ball. The dough should have a sticky texture.

Lightly dust your counter (I used gf all purpose flour), and turn out the dough. Using either wet hands with cold water, or a dough scraper, and shape the dough in a ball. Once formed, using your wet hands, smooth out the dough's surface. Next, pick up the dough and place into an oiled bowl flipping the dough so the smooth side is on the bottom. Now, take your wet hands and smooth the top side of the dough.

Cover the bread with a tea towel. The dough will take a good 4 - 5 hours to rise. My dough is doubling in size but yours may not rise quite as much.

As the rise nears completion, turn on your oven to 425 degrees and put your Dutch oven in to get good and hot. After 45 - 60 minutes, take the Dutch oven out of the oven. Add the dough that has been placed on parchment paper into the pot. Add a few ice cubes on the outside of the parchment paper to provide some steam. Cover and place back in the oven.

Cook 25 minutes covered and 25 minutes uncovered. To check for doneness, either use a thermometer cooking to 210 degrees, or what I do, is take the bread out and tap the bottom side. If you get a hollow sound, the bread is done. Let the bread completely cool before cutting. I usually wait until the next day.

Serve and enjoy!
