Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • Optional: Herbs (e.g., rosemary or oregano)

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast by combining warm water and sugar in a bowl. Sprinkle yeast on top and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Create a well in the center.
  3. Pour the activated yeast mixture and olive oil into the well, stirring gently until just combined.
  4. Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Fold in the shredded cheese and optional herbs until evenly distributed.
  6. Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.
