Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil optional for added richness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and instant yeast. Stir and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  2. Add the flour and salt to the yeast mixture. If you're using olive oil, add it here as well. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth. If the dough feels sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rest in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
  5. After resting, punch down the dough and shape it into a round loaf. You can also divide it to create individual rolls.
  6. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the dough in the air fryer, leaving space around each piece. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Once cooked, let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing. Enjoy with your favorite toppings!

Notes

Experiment with different flour types like whole wheat or bread flour for unique flavors and textures. Allowing the dough to rest and rise is crucial for achieving the best texture. Monitor the cooking time as air fryers can vary in temperature.
