1Combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons of instant yeast, and your chosen sweetener in a bowl.
2Add 1 1/2 cups of water to the bowl.
3Mix the ingredients with a spoon until a tacky, wet dough forms.
4Cover the bowl and let the dough sit and rise for 2 hours.
5After 2 hours, use two forks to pull the risen dough off the sides of the bowl and fold it into the center a couple of times to form a loose, wiggly ball.
6Drizzle a little olive oil into the bowl and rub it around, then pull the dough off the bottom.
7Butter a bread pan.
8Pull the dough up and roll it into a cylinder shape, then place it into the buttered bread pan.
9Wash your hands.
10Let the dough rise in the bread pan until it reaches the top, or for about an hour in a warm environment.
11Bake in a 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 45 minutes.
