1 ½ cups lukewarm water
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon active dry yeast
3 ¼ cups bread flour or all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups lukewarm water
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon active dry yeast

Place dough in the Dutch oven, cover, and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 10–15 minutes more until deep golden brown. Cool before slicing.

4. Buttery Croissant Dough: Master the Layers
