In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose or bread flour, 2 teaspoons of instant yeast, and 1 teaspoon of salt.

Gradually pour in 1½ cups of warm water and 1 tablespoon of honey into the dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough forms.

Transfer the sticky dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for about 1-2 minutes.

Place the kneaded dough back in the bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel; let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C), placing a Dutch oven inside to warm up.

Shape the dough into a loaf and slash the top with a sharp knife.

Transfer the loaf to a baking sheet or Dutch oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Let the bread cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
