How to Make Low Fat Bread Machine Italian Bread

  1. Combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 teaspoon sugar in your bread machine pan.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour.
  3. Gradually add 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup of unbleached flour, a pinch of oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon of basil to your bread machine pan, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Select the dough cycle on your bread machine and let it knead for the allotted time (usually around 15-20 minutes).
  5. Once the dough cycle is complete, shape the dough into a round loaf or your desired shape (bread sticks, pizza crust etc.)
