Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Sliced pepperoni, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt.
Add the warm water, milk, and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients. Stir well to create a smooth batter.
Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped pepperoni, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. If using, also fold in the grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Transfer the batter to a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Cover the loaf pan with a clean kitchen towel and let the batter rise for about 20 minutes in a warm, draft-free area until slightly puffed.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) during the last 10 minutes of the rising time.
Once risen, bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as-is or with your favorite dipping sauce!
