Instructions
To prepare the pan:
- Lightly grease a 9"x 13" baking pan. Drizzle the olive oil in the bottom.
- Set aside.
To make the bread:
- Combine all the ingredients in the bowl of an electric stand mixer.* Beat at high speed for 1 minute. The dough will be sticky.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.
To make the topping and finish the bread:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- If necessary, use your fingers to spread the dough into the corners of the pan. Then, use your finger to poke the dough gently all over. A little olive oil on your fingers will keep the dough from sticking to you.
- Drizzle the top with olive oil. Sprinkle with your desired toppings.
- Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown.
- Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- *A sturdy, high-powered hand mixer would likely work, but a stand mixer works beautifully.
- Recipe slightly adapted from King Arthur Flour.
