Our love affair with artisan bread continues! With bread this flavorful, you don’t need any sauces, dips or condiments. We made sundried tomato parmesan bread with olive oil dough, and the loaf came out crisp on the outside, and super moist and savory on the inside.
After mixing the dough, we let it rise (covered) in the Kitchenaid bowl for two hours — it rose to about twice the original volume!
We then rolled out the dough into a rectangle and brushed it with olive oil and topped it with chopped sundried tomatoes (in oil) and grated parmesan cheese.
The dough then gets rolled up…
…and shaped into an oval loaf which we then brush with olive oil and slash on the top. Ready to go into the oven!
Fresh out of the oven! The edges got a little burnt, but overall it came out nicely!
The sundried tomatoes inside are the best part — they give the bread so much flavor, and tastes so good paired with the parmesan! 🙂 This is definitely my favorite so far out of the artisan breads we’ve made; we’ll be making more for sure.
In addition, we made some blueberry buttermilk scones to eat for breakfast. They didn’t come out as sweet as the cranberry orange scones, but they were still pretty tasty.

haha* It’s all thanks to the Artisan Bread book Ann Helen told me about. It’s hard to go back to storebought bread after this!

I’ve made a pumpkin brioche which is amazing (not sure if it’s in this book or the 2nd one though…). Philaine has tried plain brioche and said it was really good!
I know what you mean about it changing your life, I think it has changed my life too 🙂

I will say that the bread looks no less than fantastic and my savory tastebuds are all lit up right now, lol. Call me crazy or just plain silly, but the pic of the fully formed, oven-ready loaf, all white, glistening and sticky, just reminds me of something out Star Wars ensemble of alien-like creatures. Ok, I’ll shut up now :P. Nice work!

The bread is really good — Dan and I both love it and are definitely gonna make it again. 🙂
I actually agree about the pre-baked loaf. When I was taking a photo of it, I couldn’t help but feel like it looked some giant shiny white roly poly. Creepy! 🙁
