Ingredients

• 1 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 3 cups Bread flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast

Directions

Step 1

Add the warm water (around 110°F/45°C), olive oil, and honey to the bread machine's pan.

Step 2

Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the liquid ingredients.

Step 3

Add the bread flour on top of the liquid mixture, spreading it out evenly to cover the liquids completely.

Step 4

Sprinkle the salt, dried basil, dried oregano, and dried thyme over the flour. Be careful not to let the salt come into direct contact with the yeast.

Step 5

Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast.

Step 6

Set the bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle with your preferred crust setting (light, medium, or dark). If available, choose a size setting appropriate for a 1.5-pound loaf.

Step 7

Start the bread machine and allow it to do the work of kneading, rising, and baking. The total time will depend on your machine's specific cycle but usually takes approximately 3 hours.

Step 8

Once the bread is baked, carefully remove it from the machine's pan and place it on a wire rack to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the aromatic flavors of garlic and herbs in every bite!
