How to Make Crunchy Farmhouse Bread
- In a large bowl, combine warm water (105-115°F), yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the olive oil, salt, and half of the flour. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- Gradually add the remaining flour, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic (about 8-10 minutes by hand, or using a stand mixer).
- If using a bread machine (ABM), follow your machine's instructions for the dough cycle.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Gently punch down the dough and shape it into a round loaf.
- Place the loaf in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
