Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • ¾ cup warm water (110°F/45°C)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Whisk together until evenly distributed.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in warm water and olive oil. Stir until the dough comes together into a shaggy mass.
  3. Knead dough: Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. First rise: Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  5. Shape dough: Punch down the dough and shape into a round loaf.
  6. Second rise: Place the dough on parchment paper, cover, and let rise for 20-30 minutes until puffy.
  7. Preheat skillet: Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-low heat. Place the dough and parchment paper in the skillet.
  8. Cook bread: Cover the skillet and cook for 15-20 minutes on one side until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 10-15 minutes.
  9. Cool and serve: Remove from skillet, cool on a wire rack, slice, and enjoy!
