Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the warm water and sugar, then sprinkle the yeast on top. Let this sit for 5-10 minutes or until it becomes frothy.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center.
Step 3
Add the yeast mixture into the well of the flour mixture, then add the olive oil.
Step 4
Stir until a dough begins to form, then fold in the chopped walnuts.
Step 5
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Step 6
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 8
Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased loaf pan.
Step 9
Allow the dough to rise again for about 20 minutes, or until it fills the pan well.
Step 10
Once risen, place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
