Ingredients
PREP TIME: 80 minutesCOOK TIME: 6 minutes
½ cup warm water – the water should be between 105-115°F 2 teaspoons instant yeast – or active dry yeast. Normally instant yeast does not need to be activated in warm water first, but for this recipe, it tends to create a fluffier texture than simply adding it to the flour or using active dry yeast. 1 teaspoon granulated sugar – it’s just enough sugar to help the yeast bloom 3 tablespoons olive oil – you can also use vegetable oil or melted coconut oil ¼ cup plain yogurt – helps give the bread a soft texture 1 whole egg ½ teaspoon salt 2½ – 3 cups all-purpose flour – learn How to Measure Flour Correctly so you get the best texture 2 tablespoons butter – use salted or unsalted butter 2 teaspoons minced garlic – optional flavor, add it to the butter and then melt toppings (optional) – sprinkle with fresh herbs like fresh cilantro or parsley
