BRUSCHETTA CHEESY LOAF BREAD

Time: 2 h 40 min
Servings: 12 slices

INGREDIENTS

• 1 tbsp organic active dry yeast
• 1 tablespoons honey
• 1 cup warm water 105 °F
• ¼ cup olive oil
• ½  tablespoon Pink Himalayan Salt
• 1 tablespoon Bruschetta Dip Mix
• ½ teaspoon Onion powder
• ½ cup grated Romano cheese
• 3 cups unbleached or whole wheat flour

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a bowl, mix yeast, honey and warm water together then let the mixture rest for 5 minutes, until it doubles in size or becomes foamy.
2. Stir the rest of the ingredients with only 1 1/2 cups flour into the yeast mixture. As you stir the dough, slowly add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of flour until you get a firm dough.
3. Knead dough for about 10 minutes, or until it is smooth. Place in a bowl with oil, and then flip the dough to cover the top side with oil. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and set aside for an hour, or until the dough doubles in size.
4. Punch dough down and knead for a minute. Split the dough to create two loaves and place inside two oiled loaf pans. Set aside for 30 minutes for the dough to rise.
5. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30-40 minutes. Take out the loaves from the oven and set aside for 10 minutes. Slice the bread and enjoy.
