Prep time: 15 minutesCook time: 35 minutesServes: 8
Ingredients
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water and sprinkle yeast over the top. Let it stand for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. Stir in olive oil and salt into the yeast mixture. Add flour gradually, mixing until a soft dough forms.
3. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
5. Punch down the dough, shape into a loaf, and place it in a greased loaf pan. Allow it to rise again until doubled, about 30 minutes.
6. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
7. Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped.
8. Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing.
