Italian (or not) Bread
This recipe comes together easily and pretty quickly, as far as bread recipes go… two things I appreciate when it comes to bread making!
It can also be tweaked and personalized very easily to go with whatever flavour you’re looking for 👌🏻
Enjoy and not only good luck making it but also in doing your best to not eat a whole loaf or two yourself, once they are out of the oven 😉
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups warm water
2 tbsp yeast
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
5 1/2 cups flour
1 egg white / oil (I used rosemary infused olive oil)
2 tbsp Italian seasoning*
1 tbsp everything bagel seasoning (optional…but nice 😉)
*the seasonings can easily be adjusted to suit personal preferences and make other flavours of bread, so go ahead and play around with combinations!
Instructions:
Pour the water, sugar and yeast into a bowl and let it sit for 10-15 minutes until the yeast has activated.
Add the remaining ingredients and mix it all together until well blended.
Move to a warm area, cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 450°
Punch down the dough and then divide and form into three loaves.
Using a sharp knife, score the tops of the loaves and then brush with either egg white or oil.
Let the loaves rise another 5 minutes.
Bake for 12-15 minutes.
I brushed a little butter over the loaves and ground some corse salt on top, once I removed them from the oven.
I’d love to know if you make this/enjoyed it!
