In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 ½ teaspoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 2 ½ teaspoons of quick yeast. Gradually stir in 1 ⅓ cups of warm water until a sticky dough forms.

Cover the mixing bowl and place it in a warm area for about 60 minutes, allowing the dough to rise and double in size.

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface, shape it into a ball, and cover with a towel for about 20 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 450°F and place your empty Dutch oven inside to heat up for about 30 minutes.

After resting, carefully transfer the shaped dough into the hot Dutch oven and score the top with a sharp knife.

Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the lid and bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden brown.

Once baked, remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes.
