This quick bread comes together and bakes in under two hours. It can be baked in an oven or on the grill. Because of the high-heat safe Emile Henry Baking Cloche, there is no need to preheat the cloche or add steam. The bread cloche is one of my most used kitchen tools. Whether you are a novice or a pro baker, it will help you up your bread baking game!
