Description

A wonderful sidekick to chili, soup or stew. This can be done in the bread machine or by hand—your choice.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CRUST:
  • 1-½ cup Water, 80-90 Degrees F (I Use 105-110 Degree Water Since I Do The Dough By Hand)
  • 2 Tablespoons Plus 1 Teaspoon Of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 cups Plus 3 Tablespoons Bread Flour (I Don't Use Quite 3 Cups)
  • 1-½ teaspoon Instant Yeast (Bread Machine, Quick Rise Or Active Dry Yeast May Be Substituted)
  • FOR THE OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil, For Pan And For Drizzling
  • Cornmeal, For Dusting
  • Chili Powder, to taste
  • Fresh Ground Pepper, to taste
  • 1 whole Jalapeno, Seeded And Sliced, Or More To Taste (I Use Enough To Cover The Top Of The Bread)
  • ¾ cups Shredded Cheese, Or More To Taste (I Don't Measure It—I Just Sprinkle What Looks Like The Right Amount To Me)

Preparation

Attach the kneading paddle to your bread machine bread pan. Place all crust ingredients, in the order listed, into the bread pan. Place pan into the bread machine. Select dough/pizza dough setting and select medium size loaf. Press start to begin mixing, kneading and rising. When cycle is finished, remove dough from pan. Punch to deflate it and then let dough rest for 10 minutes.

Note: If using a stand mixer, combine yeast, sugar, salt and 2 cups of flour in the bowl and whisk to combine. Then add warm water and olive oil and beat on medium speed for at least 2 minutes until mixture forms a soft dough. You can either add flour and knead in the mixer with a dough hook if you have a KitchenAid mixer or turn the soft dough out onto a floured surface and knead enough of the remaining flour in by hand to form a soft dough that is smooth and elastic. I knead by hand. It took about 5 minutes for a nice smooth dough to form. All I did was let the dough rest for 10 minutes then proceeded with the recipe.

Brush a 12×8-inch pan with olive oil and then sprinkle with cornmeal.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to the size of the pan. Place dough on the pan and cover dough loosely with plastic wrap. Let it rise in a warm place for about 40-50 minutes, or until doubled.

Preheat oven to 425 F.

Press fingertip indentations into dough about 1″ apart and 1/2″ deep. Drizzle dough with olive oil. Sprinkle with chili powder, ground pepper, and jalapeno slices. Sprinkle cheese over top.

Bake at 425 F for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
