Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon White sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Add the warm water, olive oil, and sugar to the bread machine pan.
Sprinkle the salt over the liquids in the pan.
Layer the all-purpose flour and bread flour on top of the liquid ingredients, ensuring it covers the liquid completely.
Make a small well in the flour and add the active dry yeast to the well. This keeps it separate from the wet ingredients until the kneading process starts.
Set the bread machine to the Basic or White Bread cycle, select your crust preference (light, medium, or dark), and start the machine.
Once the cycle is complete, remove the bread from the machine and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve and enjoy! This bread pairs deliciously with roasted pork, pickles, and Swiss cheese for a traditional Cuban sandwich.
