My family eats this flavorful bread as fast as I can make it. Sometimes I add different herbs, red onion or crumbled bacon. It's one of my best recipes! —Mary Cass, Baltimore, Maryland

To prepare dough by hand: Dissolve yeast in warm water (110° to 115°). Combine the olive oil, sugar, oregano and salt. Stir in yeast mixture and enough flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, 1 hour. Proceed with recipe as directed.
