Prep Time

Cook Time

45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup warm water (110-115°F)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Recipe FAQ

Can I use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour?

Yes, you can use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour. Bread flour has a higher protein content, which will give your bread a slightly chewier texture.

Can I add herbs or spices to the dough?

Yes, you can add herbs or spices to the dough to give it extra flavor. Try adding garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs like rosemary or thyme.

Can I freeze the bread?

Yes, you can freeze the bread. Allow it to cool completely, then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in a freezer bag. It will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your water is the right temperature. If it's too hot, it can kill the yeast. If it's too cold, the yeast won't activate.
  • Kneading the dough is important to develop the gluten, which gives bread its structure and chewiness.
  • Letting the dough rise twice helps to develop the flavor and texture of the bread.

Enjoy your freshly baked crispy white bread with a slather of butter or jam, or use it to make your favorite sandwich. This recipe is easy to make and yields a delicious, homemade bread that you'll be proud to serve to your family and friends.
