Description

No-yeast, just moist, soft bread made with fresh basil, fresh mozzarella cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour

  • 1 cup bread flour

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 3 1/2 to 4 oz cubed fresh mozzarella cheese

  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil

  • 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes not packed

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 1/2 tbsp grape-seed oil can use extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 and grease an 8×4 inch bread pan.

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well.

  • Add the basil, mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes to the four and mix until all incorporated.

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil and buttermilk.

  • Pour the liquids into the flour mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients are well combined. (The dough will be sticky.)

  • Transfer the dough into the bread pan and spread it evenly.

Bake for 40-45 minutes. (See notes to check the bread for doneness.)

Notes

  • here are several tests you can perform to see if the food is done but the temperature is the best indication in most cases. Some easy tests include to touch and gently press the middle of the bread to see how firm it is.
  • You can use toothpick test to see if the middle of the bread is done. To do the toothpick test: insert the toothpick in the center of the bread, if the toothpick comes out clean, it is cooked through.
