Bread Machine Italian Bread

This bread machine Italian bread recipe produces a delicious & rustic Italian bread. It uses simple ingredients such as flour, milk and olive oil. Our Italian bread is easy to make because the bread machine does the hard work of mixing & kneading the dough. You just have to shape the bread & put it in the oven. Your family will love your amazing Italian bread. It is perfect with most meals… especially with Italian dishes such as lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken parmigiana, etc.

Bread Machine Italian Bread (with Coarse Salt Topping)

Bread Machine Italian Bread

In case you didn’t know but Italian bread is not the same as French bread. Classic French bread generally uses only yeast, flour, water and salt. In contrast, Italian breads are a little more complex & flavorful and may use additional ingredients such as milk, olive oil, sugar, herbs, etc. In addition, many Italian breads are more oval in shape whereas classic French bread loaves usually come in a narrow baguette shape.

Please be aware that this Italian bread is not the usual set & forget bread machine recipe. You will have to shape the bread in order to create an oval Italian bread (versus settling for the standard bread machine “block” shaped bread). Moreover, this Italian bread needs to be finished in an oven. Nevertheless, this bread machine recipe is much easier than making Italian bread entirely by hand! Your Italian bread will also look much nicer than a “block” of bread machine bread.

Mold the Dough into a Long Football or Torpedo Shape & Wait to Rise

Italian Bread in Torpedo or Football Shape

Instructions – Bread Machine Italian Bread

  • Unplug the bread machine.
  • Remove the bread pan from the bread machine. Pour the milk & olive oil into the bread pan and then add the rest of the ingredients (except optional coarse salt). Put the bread pan back into the unplugged bread machine.
  • Plug in the bread machine. Select the “Dough” setting and press the “Start” button on your bread machine.
  • When your bread machine has finished, unplug the machine & pour the dough onto a cutting board. Wear oven mitts (as the bread pan/bread machine may be hot). Sprinkle some flour on the cutting board (before you pour the dough) in order to avoid the dough sticking to the cutting board.
  • Make either 1 large loaf or 2 medium-sized loaves (by cutting the dough in half). Shape the dough so it looks like a large pill or fat torpedo. See tips section for more shaping information. FYI – The dough roll(s) should be about 1/2 of the width of your desired finished baked bread width (as the dough will expand before being placed in the oven).
  • Place the shaped dough onto a nonstick baking sheet.
  • Coat the dough with some extra olive oil. Use a small pastry brush.
  • Cover the dough & baking sheet with a light kitchen cloth or plastic wrap in order to protect from dust, insects, etc.
  • Let the dough rise for 1 hour.
  • During this “rising” time, preheat your oven to 450 degrees F.
  • After the hour, remove the covering from the dough and “score” (slice) the top of each dough roll with a sharp knife. Make 3 diagonal slices about 1/4 – 1/2 inch deep and about 3-4 inches apart. This will help prevent the bread from cracking during baking.
  • Optional – Sprinkle a pinch of coarse salt (salt with large crystals) on the top of the oil-covered dough.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven. It should bake at 450 degrees F for 17-20 minutes or until golden brown. Wear oven mitts.
  • At the 8-10 minute mark, turn the baking sheet around in order to ensure an even “browning” of the bread. Wear oven mitts.
  • Remove the baking sheet when done and place the bread to cool down on a cooling rack. Wear oven mitts.
  • Please read the tips section below for extra information on how to make this recipe successfully & to avoid common bread machine problems.

The Tender Inside of an Italian Bread

Tips – Bread Machine Italian Bread Recipe

  • The tips below are designed to help bread machine “novices” and/or people with limited baking experience.
  • Click on our “print recipe” link if you want to print out this recipe. It includes all of the recipe’s ingredients and instructions. However, the recipe print function does not include our tips section. Please read the tips section in order to avoid common recipe problems.
  • This recipe is part of our series on easy Bread Machine Recipes.

  • Italian breads are delicious because they tend to be a little more flavorful than classic French bread baguettes. Italian bread recipes often use more ingredients and this can result a wider variety of flavors. However, if you are lacking any key ingredients (i.e. milk or olive oil) to make this Italian bread, you should try our Bread Machine French Bread recipe because our French bread (baguette) recipe only uses yeast, flour, water and salt.
  • Or if you are looking for an Italian bread that is baked in your bread machine (and not in the oven) and where you do not have to shape the loaves by hand, you should try our Bread Machine Italian Herb Bread.
  • This recipe is NOT for 1 lb capacity bread machines. Please check the capacity of your bread machine before making this recipe. The dough will be too large for your machine and overflow the bread pan. An example of a bread machine with only a 1 lb capacity is the Zojirushi Home Bakery Mini Breadmaker (model BB-HAC10).

  • Do not use cold milk (or water) because that will inhibit the growth of the yeast. If you use cold milk, your bread may have trouble rising properly. The milk should be lukewarm in temperature. FYI – If I am taking the milk out of my refrigerator, I just put the milk into the microwave for 20 seconds to warm it up. Of course, you should not make the milk too hot as bread yeast can be killed by hot water/milk.
  • You can use any type of milk. However, there will be more flavor if you use whole milk (versus skim milk). You can also use non-dairy milk such as plain soy milk, plain oat milk, etc.
  • If you are out of milk, you can use water but the bread will be a little less flavorful.

  • If you have run out of bread flour, you can use all-purpose flour to make bread machine Italian bread. An all-purpose flour Italian bread might not be as fluffy/airy (as bread flour-based Italian bread) but it is still pretty good.
  • Beyond the 2 tablespoons of olive oil added to the bread pan, you should use a little extra oil to coat the dough (with a pastry brush) after you have shaped the dough. This helps to prevent the dough from drying out & cracking as it rises.
  • If you don’t have olive oil, you can use a neutral flavored vegetable oil (such as canola oil or corn oil) as a substitute. However, I prefer the taste of olive oil when making Italian bread.

  • Optional – Add 1 teaspoon of your favorite Italian-style herb or herbs (i.e. rosemary or Italian seasoning) when mixing the ingredients if you want to add a little more flavor to your Italian bread. Many classic Italian breads (i.e. Focaccia) have rosemary in their recipes.
  • FYI – Italian seasoning is usually a combination of dried herbs such as rosemary, basil, thyme, oregano, sage and marjoram.
  • If you want to add garlic to your Italian bread, I would recommend using small bits of minced & fried garlic and NOT garlic powder. Dehydrated garlic powder seems to slow or even stop yeast growth (as it has some antimicrobial effect on the yeast). I always have to use minced & fried garlic when making anything with yeast (i.e. bread machine garlic bread). The frying seems to destroy this antimicrobial effect.
  • Optional – Sprinkle a pinch of coarse sea salt or kosher salt (salt with large crystals) on top of the oil-covered dough just before you place the baking sheet in the oven.

  • With this recipe, you can make either 1 large loaf or 2 medium-sized loaves (by cutting the dough in half). Shape the dough so it looks like a semi-narrow (American) football or fat torpedo.
  • For the most consistent/best results, the shape of the Italian bread should be like a large pill (rounded ends with straight middle section). Try to round off the ends of loaf (versus having pointy ends) to avoid potentially overbaking or burning the ends of the loaf. In addition, beginning bakers should make sure the width of the bread is roughly the same throughout (like a large pill). This avoids overbaking narrower bread ends, etc.
  • Be aware that the dough can double in size during the hour when it is left to rise. Therefore, you need to shape/roll your dough so it is 1/2 the width of your planned final Italian bread width.

  • Shaping Option 1 – You can mold the dough by hand in order to achieve the desired oval bread shape (just like your old Playdoh days as a child!!).
  • Shaping Option 2 – Or you can use a rolling pin to flatten the dough to about 1 inch high (like a thick flat pizza) and then use your hands to roll up the dough tightly like a jelly roll (start at one side of the dough and roll towards the other side). You will then need to pinch off the ends of the dough & pinch closed the seam of the dough roll. When placing the dough roll on the baking tray, you should hide the seam on the bottom of the dough roll (so the smooth top of the roll is facing up and the seam is touching the baking tray). FYI – The bread pictures above used option 2.
  • Shaping Option 3 – Or watch this King Arthur Baking video for another way to shape your loaf (ignore the part at the end of the video about putting into a bread pan).
  • Shaping Option 4 – Use an “Italian bread pan” to shape your bread. Like a baguette pan, an Italian bread pan keeps the bread curved during the baking process.
  • If anything is a little odd after the dough rises (i.e. a bit of the dough is sticking out), you can GENTLY press it back into shape. However, be gentle and don’t lift the dough because you don’t want to crush the airy dough.

  • Many bakers like to “score” Italian bread (with diagonal or horizontal cuts in the top of the dough) because this helps to reduce the potential for uncontrolled cracks & bursts in the crust.
  • To score the bread, you will need a very sharp & thin knife or a professional scoring tool (bread lame) in order to avoid tugging at the dough while you slice. Some people also like to use a razor blade or Exacto knife to score their bread. However, be aware that many “regular” sharp kitchen knives have problems when scoring bread (as they tug on the dough and/or compress the “air” out of the dough as they cut).
  • For more details on how to score dough properly, you might like to read these excellent articles:
  • King Arthur Baking – Scoring Bread Dough
  • Food & Wine – How to Score Bread Dough
  • Bon Appetit – This Little Tool Takes the Stress Out of Scoring My Homemade Bread
  • Don’t worry if your Italian bread develops some small “cracks” while baking even if you scored the bread. Italian bread is tough to make perfectly when you start out (because cracking can occur if the dough is too dry, too wet, etc.). However, one Italian bread secret is to let the dough fully rise before putting it in the oven so the Italian bread doesn’t expand too much during the baking process. Nevertheless, even with a few small cracks, your Italian bread will look great and taste fantastic!

  • Make sure to place the baking tray in the center of the oven. If you place the baking tray on the top or bottom rack, it might be near the oven’s heating element (where the temperature will be hotter than expected). This could led to the bread burning or baking faster than expected.
  • Make sure to rotate the baking tray at the 8-10 minute mark to ensure an even “browning” of the bread.

  • This recipe uses bread machine yeast (instant yeast) and NOT active dry yeast.
  • Some bakers like to make a little indent on top of the flour (like a crater in the top of a flour volcano) in order to hold the yeast. This will prevent the yeast from falling into the milk & activating prematurely (until the machine starts).
  • If you haven’t used your bread machine in a long time, please buy some NEW bread machine yeast before making your bread. Old yeast can die or lose its potency and this will lead to bread that does not rise properly. Bread machine yeast may not be viable if it has been sitting in your pantry for years.
  • Do not place the salt on top of the yeast (as the salt can kill the yeast or limit the yeast’s growth) when adding the dry ingredients into the bread pan. You can use the yeast “indent” method (see bullet point above) to keep the salt & yeast separate until the bread machine starts to mix the ingredients. Place the yeast in the indent and place the salt away from the yeast on one of the sides of the bread pan.

  • Homemade Italian bread is much cheaper than buying bead from some fancy bakery. It is also much more fun to make your own freshly made bread versus driving across town on a snowy/rainy day in order to buy day old Italian bread.
  • Some people like to coat their Italian bread with egg whites (for a shinier “coat”) but I prefer a more rustic look and use olive oil. An egg “wash” also helps to make the exterior dough more adhesive. This allows seeds or dried herbs to better stick to the exterior of the bread (if the baker is trying to add extra flavor or texture to the bread’s crust) and less likely to fall off during the baking or handling of the bread.

  • Cooler home temperatures in the winter can cause rising problems for bread dough. Ideally, your room temperature should be around 75-80 degrees F. Colder winter room temperatures can significantly delay the rise of the dough.
  • Other factors that can impact the rise of the dough include old or expired yeast, contaminated yeast (i.e. the yeast was left in an open jar & air moisture contaminated it), water that is too cold or too hot, using heavily chlorinated tap water, placing salt next to or on top of the yeast (salt can kill yeast or inhibit its growth), not covering the dough during the rising period (as the exterior of the dough can dry out & limit the ability to rise), etc.
  • Use a separate oven thermometer in addition to the oven’s normal temperature gauge. This second thermometer will help you to accurately gauge the temperature inside your oven. Older ovens have a greater chance of the internal sensors not working properly and the oven being hotter than shown on the oven’s internal sensor. Hotter than expected ovens can result in bread making problems (i.e. burning of the bread, extra hard crust, etc.). FYI – Oven thermometers are relatively inexpensive and often sell for about $10-$15.

  • If you liked this Italian dish, you should also try our bread machine recipes for pizza dough (with Italian seasoning), whole wheat pizza dough, calzones, breadsticks, rolls, garlic bread, etc.
  • If you have a problem with a bread machine recipe, please make sure that you are following the recipe exactly (i.e. using the correct bread machine settings), you are using the correct amount of an ingredient (i.e. don’t eyeball the measurements versus using a measurement cup or accidentally add a teaspoon when a tablespoon is called for), you are using the correct ingredients (i.e. bread machine yeast versus regular yeast or bread flour versus all purpose flour), etc. Please don’t “wing” things with recipes.
  • If you start substituting ingredients (i.e. different types of flour), you are experimenting and should not expect similar results to the recipe shown above. Experimenting can be fun. However, you should expect some successes but more potential disappointments when you start to experiment with recipes. For example, if you substitute whole wheat flour for the bread flour, you will probably experience a problem (as whole wheat flour doesn’t rise nearly as well as bread flour). Moreover, whole wheat flour has a totally different flavor.
  • Be aware that some bread recipes may differ slightly between different types of bread machines. Therefore, please read your bread machine manufacturer’s instructions for basic bread recipes (i.e. white bread or whole wheat bread) as these are more likely to work on your individual bread machine.

  • My recipes are based on US ingredient measurements (i.e. US cups & tablespoons). However, as a courtesy to our European visitors, I have also included some very ROUGH European equivalents (i.e. grams & milliliters). Since I rarely use European measurements when baking, please let me know in the comment section below if any of the European ingredient measurements need to be changed (i.e. for XYZ ingredient, milliliters are more commonly used versus the grams information listed in the recipe).
  • Always wear oven mitts/gloves when dealing with ovens & bread machines.

Questions – Bread Machine Italian Bread Recipe

Can I add herbs to Italian bread?

Yes, there are many Italian breads that contain different herbs (i.e. rosemary). Herbs are a great way to add different flavors and improve a “standard” (slightly boring) homemade bread. If you would like to add herbs to this Italian bread recipe, you can add 1 teaspoon of your favorite herb (i.e. rosemary, Italian seasonings, oregano, etc.) into the bread pan before you turn on the bread machine.

  • THarris posted some delicious ingredient additions to my Eggless Banana Bread Recipe – “Amazing,delish! Added orange rind, vanilla extract, cinnamon – all one tsp each. Used oil instead of butter.“
  • Jessica made some amazing chocolate chip bagels out of our Bread Machine Bagels recipe and kindly posted some very useful tips – “I experimented with the chocolate chips. So what I did was let the dough cool for a bit after the dough cycle, but before it started rising again was sectioned it into 8 pieces. I gently kneaded in a handful of chocolate chips into the individual pieces. I shaped my pieces into bagels. I was sure to fold in the chocolate chips so none of them were or exposed on the surface of the dough. I then boiled and baked each bagel. They came out perfect. Chocolate chips held up just fine. The bagels tasted great. I ate one immediately after they had baked, and then contemplated eating the whole batch. They were the perfect chewy consistency I was hoping for in a bagel.“
  • Dutch posted a wonderful oatmeal variation of my No Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies – “I reviewed these amazing cookies a few weeks ago, easily giving them five stars, and mentioned that I planned on trying them again with oatmeal. Today is my grandson’s birthday and when asked what he’d like me to make for him, without hesitation, he asked for Bread Dad’s cookies. Just finished making them… adding two cups of regular oats with the chocolate chips, and cutting them into the batter with a spatula. The results were perfect. The cookies had a bit more heft to them AND I got a few more… about 48. Again… I was religious about chilling the dough. Thanks again for the recipe!“
  • PattiAnn posted some great tips on how to make my Bread Machine Italian Bread Recipe in her Breville countertop oven. Please visit the comments section on the recipe page for more of her comment. – “I always use the proof funtion in winter as well as summer. This gives you a constant temp when proofing. Also, most of the time I will lay a piece of foil lightly over the loaf halfway through the baking process. This prevents over browning of the loaf. This happens because your loaf is in a more confined oven and closer to the heating elements.. I also bake in CI, Romatopf, bread bowls, all works. As long as it fits you can use it to bake in. I used an Italian bread pan to bake the Italian loaves.“
  • SamanthaH posted some great “end products” that use my Bread Machine French Bread. I am going to try out her pizza bread idea tonight! – “This bread has been a staple in our home for a couple years now! I make it and freeze so it’s available when needed. Makes amazing garlic bread, bruschetta, pizza bread, or on its own with butter. So impressed with the recipe and the minimal ingredients is a huge plus!!!“
