After rising, prepare a covered baker by greasing it with olive oil and optionally lining it with parchment paper.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and shape it into a loaf, seam side down.

Let the loaf proof in the pot for 2 hours with the lid on.

Make cuts on the surface of the loaf for even expansion.

Place the pot in a cold oven and bake for 50 minutes with the lid on.

Remove the lid and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
