Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, yeast, and salt, ensuring even distribution. Gradually add in room temperature water and olive oil, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Transfer the kneaded dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover it with a damp towel. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a baking tray and punch down the risen dough. Spread it evenly and create dimples on the surface.
- Arrange fresh rosemary sprigs into a tree shape and place cherry tomatoes and pearl onions to resemble ornaments.
- Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown. Check for a delightful aroma.
- Let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board, slice, and serve warm.
