  • Total Time: 85 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups bread flour
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 3/4 cups warm water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp dried basil
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add in the flour, salt, olive oil, garlic powder, and herbs. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it. Let it rise in a warm area for at least 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  6. Shape the risen dough into long sub rolls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Let the shaped rolls rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Brush the tops with olive oil, sprinkle with herbs, and heap on the cheese.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Let cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy fresh or as a sandwich base.

Notes

For a richer flavor, let the dough rise overnight in the fridge before shaping and baking.
