A warm, fragrant garlic herb bread that pairs perfectly with soups, salads, or simply as a snack.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until frothy.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, and parsley. Once the yeast is ready, pour it in and mix well.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. First rise: Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 60 minutes.
  6. Shape the loaf: Punch down the risen dough to release air. Shape it into a loaf by rolling it tightly and tucking in the ends.
  7. Second rise: Place the shaped loaf into a greased loaf pan. Cover again and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat oven and bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Once the loaf has risen, bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. Cool and serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.

Notes

Use fresh herbs for more vibrant flavor and ensure the water used for activating yeast is warm, not hot.
