  1. Make a deep hole in the middle of the dry ingredients
  2. Pour the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients

  4. Knead the dough using a stand mixer. Dough should be smooth. Mix for about 6 to 8 minutes
  5. Transfer the dough into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap
  6. Let the dough rise until doubled in size. About an hour or so

Tip for a fast dough rising.. turn on your oven into the lowest temperature. Then turn it off once its heated. Put your covered dough into the oven. Your dough will rise faster..
