Homemade bread ### Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil (optional)

Instructions

In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water and then sprinkle the yeast on top. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add it to the flour along with the olive oil (if using).
Mix the ingredients until a dough forms. You can use a wooden spoon or your hands for this. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover it with a damp cloth. Allow it to rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles. Shape it into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan.
Cover the loaf with the cloth again and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until it’s golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

And there you have it! A simple yet satisfying bread that you can enjoy with butter, jam, or even as a base for your favorite sandwich. Happy baking!
