Olive Bread

    1 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
    3 cups bread flour
    2 tablespoons instant nonfat dry milk
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1 1/4 teaspoons salt
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    2 teaspoons bread machine dry yeast or active dry yeast
    2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    1 (2 1/4 oz) can sliced ripe olives, drained (I use green olives)

Use a bread machine that produces 1 1/2 lb. or larger loaf. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Measure remaining ingredients carefully. Follow manufacturer's directions carefully. Follow manufacturer's directions for placing ingredients in bread machine pan.

Select Basic/White cycle. Do not use delay cycle. Follow manufacturer's directions for starting machine.

I use the basic cycle then let it go through the second rise; shut off the machine. Put the bread in a large plastic bag in the frig. My reasoning for this is, I don't have time to make bread after work and have it done in time for dinner but I like fresh, hot bread. I make the dough on Saturday or Sunday. This way I can come home from work, lay the bread on the counter for 10 or 20 minutes then shape it however I want (rolls, a loaf or flat and round like pizza dough) and bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.
