Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water and sprinkle the yeast on top. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture, minced garlic, and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased loaf pan and sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese on top.
- Cover the pan and let the dough rise for an additional 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the bread for 25-30 minutes, or until it’s golden brown on top and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
