Cafe Bread Ingredients

Preparation

Cafe Bread Directions

1. Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

3. Combine Ingredients

Once the yeast is activated, add it along with the olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

4. Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

5. First Rise

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.

6. Shape the Bread

After the dough has risen, punch it down and shape it into a loaf or divide into smaller pieces for rolls.

7. Second Rise

Place shaped dough onto a baking sheet or in a loaf pan. Cover and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes.

8. Preheat Oven

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

9. Bake

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

10. Brush with Butter

Remove from the oven and brush the top with melted butter for a shiny finish.

11. Cool and Serve

Allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
