Quick 30 Minute Chewy Bread


This is my quick go-to bread when I need something tasty but I don't have much time for things to rise.The original recipe advertises it as 30 minute Pizza Bread. I can't quite have it ready that fast, but I bet some of you could pull it off...(Wendy). We love this bread. Everyone loves it. We bake a whole sheet of it and then freeze the rest in small portions so we can heat it up in the oven and have it with any meal.

30 Minute Breadsticks OR No-Fail Deep Dish Pizza Crust

(If it is too thick for your family, you can either half the recipe or put one full recipe onto two cookie sheets)

2 1/2 C. Medium Hot Water
5 tsp. SAF Instant Yeast*
2 Tbsp. Sugar
3 Tbsp. Oil
1 tsp. Salt

***Sprinkle coarse salt, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese before baking***

Directions:
1. Pour medium hot water in mixing bowl. Sprinkle yeast on top and allow to dissolve.
2. Add sugar, salt, and oil. Gradually add approximately 6 cups of flour.
3. Melt 1-2 cubes butter on cookie sheet in oven as it is heating to 400 degrees and melt in oven. 4. Place dough on cookie sheet and press to fill pan, make sure butter gets on top of the dough.
