Ingredients

Before we start, let’s gather all the necessary ingredients for the homemade bread.

For the Bread:

  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup warm water (about 110°F or 45°C)
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter

Instructions

Step 1: Preparing the Dough

  1. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy and bubbly.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil (or melted butter) into the flour mixture. Stir until the dough begins to come together.
  4. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if it’s too dry, add a bit more water.
  5. First Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
