INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tablespoon instant dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 teaspoon salt

INSTRUCTIONS

  • In a large mixing bowl, add yeast, sugar, and water. Stir in salt, rosemary, basil, oregano, and garlic.

  • Transfer to a lightly greased mixing bowl, cover, and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Drizzle a baking sheet with olive oil.
  • Divide the dough in half and shape into two separate round loaves. Place loaves onto the prepared baking sheet. Let rise another 15 to 20 minutes.

  • Top each loaf with 1/2 tablespoon butter.
  • Bake in the 375 degree oven for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown.
