Instructions
1 Combine flours, garlic powder, oregano, basil, Mural of Flavor and black pepper. 2 In a separate bowl, combine the hot water, salt, sugar and active dry yeast. Stir until the sugar has dissolved into the water, then pour into the combined dry mixture. 3 Combine the ingredients until the dough has become smooth. This will take a little while... and I like to do this step in my stand mixer because I can use the bread hook, and let the mixer do all the work. 4 Once the dough is incorporated, spread it out on a greased baking sheet and let it rise for 30 minutes. 5 Once the dough has risen and doubled in size, spread it out onto a greased baking sheet. The dough will be thick and hard to spread out. 6 Using your fingers, create divots in the dough. 7 Top bread with 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil and 1/8 teaspoon salt. 8 Bake at 450°F for 25 minutes or until top is golden brown. 9 Let cool for 10 minutes, slice the bread into 12 evenly cut pieces and enjoy!View original recipe
