Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 3 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 1 clove Minced garlic (optional for extra flavor)
Instructions
Add the ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Generally, begin with the wet ingredients: water and olive oil.
Next, add the sugar, salt, garlic powder, dried parsley, and bread flour to the pan.
Sprinkle the active dry yeast on top of the flour. Ensure the yeast does not come into contact with the water at this stage to maintain optimal rising conditions.
If using fresh minced garlic, mix it with the olive oil before adding to the pan for even flavor distribution.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and secure it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Select the 'Basic Bread' or 'White Bread' setting on your bread machine. Adjust the crust setting (light, medium, or dark) to your preference.
Press start and allow the bread machine to mix, knead, rise, and bake the bread. This process usually takes around 2.5 to 3 hours depending on the machine.
Once baking is complete, carefully remove the pan from the bread machine and let the bread cool for about 10-15 minutes in the pan.
Gently turn the bread out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
