This recipe comes from a longtime friend who's also a great cook! She was kind enough to share her recipe with me. It makes a delicious, quick and easy bread that smells heavenly while it's baking! You may want to add a little basil or rosemary to the dough along with the oregano. Prep time does not include rising time. Ingredients:
2 cups water (110 degrees) |
2 (1/4 ounce) packages yeast |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano |
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast in warm water.
2. In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients, except cheese.
3. Add water to dry ingredients and beat with a mixer on low speed until blended; then beat at medium speed for about 2 minutes.
4. Mix in rest of flour.
5. Cover with waxed paper and a towel and let rise in a warm place, free of drafts, for 45 minutes.
6. Preheat oven to 375°.
7. Grease a 1 1/2 or 2-quart oven-proof bowl.
8. Stir down bread and beat about 25 strokes.
9. Turn into prepared bowl and sprinkle with the cheese.
10. Bake about 55 minutes.
11. Turn onto a wire rack to cool.
