Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 3 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.5 cup Pepperoni slices, chopped
- 0.5 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
Add the water, olive oil, sugar, salt, garlic powder, dried basil, and dried oregano to the bread machine pan.
Add the bread flour next, ensuring it completely covers the liquid ingredients to prevent premature yeast activation.
Form a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast. Do not let the yeast touch the liquid yet.
Set the bread machine to the basic or white bread cycle, with a medium crust setting, and start the machine.
Once the bread machine beeps for additional ingredients (typically about 30 minutes into the kneading cycle), add the chopped pepperoni slices and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Let the bread machine complete its cycle, including kneading, rising, and baking. Avoid opening the lid during this time to maintain even temperatures.
When the bread is finished, carefully remove it from the bread machine pan and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm for the best flavor, or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
