Add the warm water, olive oil, granulated sugar, and salt to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Add the bread flour to the pan, ensuring it completely covers the liquid ingredients below.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast to the well.
Set the bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle, with a medium crust setting if possible.
Once the machine starts kneading, after about 5-7 minutes, check the dough consistency. It should form a smooth ball. If it is too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time. If too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
When the bread machine beeps for 'add-ins' (usually during the kneading process), add the grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped pepperoni, dried Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
Let the bread machine continue to knead, rise, and bake according to the chosen cycle settings.
Once the bread is finished baking, carefully remove it from the bread machine pan and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs well with marinara sauce for dipping!
