Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 55m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 to 115 )
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Punch dough down; turn onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into loaf. Place in a 9-in. x 5-in. x 3-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs will give your bread the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't Overknead the Dough: Overkneading the dough will make the bread tough. Knead the dough just until it comes together and is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the Dough Rise in a Warm Place: The dough needs to rise in a warm place in order to double in size. If you don't have a warm place, you can preheat your oven to the lowest setting and then turn it off. Place the dough in the oven with the door closed.
  • Bake the Bread Until It Is Golden Brown: The bread is done baking when it is golden brown and sounds hollow when you tap on it.

Conclusion:

Herb bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed on its own or used to make sandwiches, croutons, or bread crumbs. With so many different herb combinations to choose from, you can easily customize this bread to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a flavorful and easy-to-make bread, give herb bread a try.
