Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes or until foamy.
-
Add 2 cups of flour, salt, diced jalapenos, cheddar cheese, and cilantro to the yeast mixture. Mix well to form a sticky dough.
-
Gradually add the remaining flour while kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Drizzle olive oil over the dough ball and turn it to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan with olive oil.
-
Punch down the dough to release excess air and shape it into a loaf to fit the prepared pan. Cover it again and let it rise for an additional 30 minutes.
-
Brush the top of the loaf with a little olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
-
Allow the Jalapeno Bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
