Method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Stir gently and sprinkle the yeast over the top, allowing it to sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Once the yeast is frothy, add the olive oil and salt to the mixture. Stir in the flour, one cup at a time, until a dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
- While the dough rises, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Once doubled in size, punch down the dough to release air bubbles. Shape it into a loaf or small rounds as desired.
- Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover it again and let it rise for an additional 15 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
