Method

Bread and Crackers

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Mix in olive oil and salt.

    Gradually add all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour, mixing until combined. Knead on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

    First Rise

    Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

    Shape and Second Rise

    Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf or rolls. Place on a baking sheet and let rise for another 30 minutes.
