Equipment
- Food Processor
- Measuring Cups
- Large Bowl
- Clean Surface
- Kitchen Towel
- Plastic Wrap
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups Bread Flour
- 1 package Active Dry Yeast
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm Water
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
Instructions
- Step 1
Combine the warm water and honey together. Use a small bowl for this first step. Stir them gently with a small spoon. Ensure the honey dissolves in the water. - Step 2
Add the yeast package to the warm water. Let it sit for five minutes now. Wait until the top looks very foamy. This means the yeast is now alive. - Step 3
Put the flour and salt in the processor. Pulse the machine a few times quickly. This mixes the dry ingredients very well. Ensure the salt is spread through the flour. - Step 4
Turn the food processor on low speed. Slowly pour in the yeast and water mixture. Add the olive oil during this step too. Mix until a big ball of dough forms. - Step 5
Place the dough on a floured surface. Knead it by hand for one minute. The dough should feel smooth and very soft. Do not add too much extra flour. - Step 6
Place the dough in a greased bowl. Cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm place. Wait for one hour until it doubles.
Notes
- Use warm water around 110 degrees.
- Fresh yeast makes the dough rise better.
- Honey helps the crust turn golden brown.
- Bread flour is better than all-purpose flour.
- Knead the dough until it feels smooth.
- Let the dough rise in a warm spot.
- Do not rush the rising process today.
- Oil the bowl so dough does not stick.
- Punch the dough down after the rise.
- Preheat your oven for a crispy crust.
