To make this recipe by hand - First dissolve the yeast in 1 cup warm water, then add the rest of ingredients in order listed. Allow it to rise for 1 hour until doubled, then punch down. Allow to rest on baking sheet for 15 minutes. Cook at 375 for 25-30 minutes until lightly browned.

This bread is delicious. I only had oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes so I rinsed them in hot water first ... it worked great!
