Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warm water and olive oil.
- Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 1 minute until smooth.
- Shape the dough into a round loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
- Use a sharp knife to score a few slashes on top of the loaf.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped.

Notes
- Use fresh baking powder for the best rise.
- Customize with herbs, cheese, or garlic powder for flavor.
