Method
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar. Mix well to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the warm water and olive oil. Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until a rough dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it's smooth and elastic.
- Place the kneaded dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
- After resting, punch down the dough gently before transferring it to a clean surface. Shape the dough into a loaf or round shape.
- Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Place the shaped dough into the air fryer basket lined with parchment paper.
Cooking
- Cook in the air fryer for about 25-30 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Once done, remove the bread and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
To store, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container. It stays fresh for 2-3 days at room temperature. For longer storage, freeze sliced pieces for up to three months.
