Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour or more (divided)
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1 package of instant rapid yeast
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
  • 1 (15-ounce) can of diced tomatoes in their juices
  • 2 tablespoons of tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil plus more for coating the bowl

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix 3 cups of flour, sugar, rapid yeast, salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, warm up the diced tomatoes in their juices, tomato paste, and olive oil. If you have a food thermometer, you’ll want the sauce to be at 110 degrees. If it is hotter, it will kill the yeast.
  3. Pour the tomato sauce into the bowl with the flour mixture. Mix until all of the ingredients are combined. The dough will be sticky. Start adding flour ¼ cup at a time until the dough is not too sticky.
  4. Knead the dough for about 6 minutes and until you can form a soft dough ball.
  5. Add some oil to the bowl and spread it all around.
  6. Place the dough in the bowl and cover it with a plastic wrap. Place the bowl in a warm place for at least one hour and until the dough has doubled in size.
  7. Preheat the oven at 375 degrees F. and grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  8. Remove the dough from the bowl and place it on the prepared loaf pan. Cover it back with the plastic wrap and allow it to rise for 30 minutes.
  9. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until golden.
  10. Remove from the pan and place it on a cooling rack to cool.

Notes

  • Flour amount varies: Aim for dough that’s moist but not sticky. The amount depends on humidity, weather, flour used, etc.
  • Check the yeast date: Expired yeast won’t rise.
  • Heat the liquid: The yeast requires a temperature of 110-115°F/43-46°C to activate. Too hot though, and the temperature will kill the yeast.
  • Leave the loaf to cool before slicing: Residual heat ensures it’s fully cooked. It will then set fully while it cools.
