Bread, glorious bread! You may not be excited, but any time I get homemade bread to turn out as great as this I am one happy guy! It helped a lot that the dough for this bread machine garlic herb pepperoni bread was about as foolproof as you can get. I need foolproof when it comes to bread. I need a bread machine to make sure I don’t make a big mess of it. My attempts at from-scratch bread are something to behold. Or hide. That’s why I have a bread machine.
This bread made me happy. If I showed you all of my bread failures before this, you’d understand! I was overjoyed!
That Wonderful Aroma… And Flavor
The house filled with a wonderful aroma as the bread baked. I love the smell of fresh-baked bread. And pepperoni.
The right combination of Italian flavors, bread machine garlic herb pepperoni bread also has the perfect texture, color, crust, flavor… you name it. I thought about adding more chopped pepperoni, but I think I was right in not doing that. You want every bite to be filled with all of the flavors and not overpowered by just one.

Get Fresh
If ever there is a time to grate and shred your own cheeses, this is it. Actually, you always should if possible. The difference is detectable. When I first started cooking I poo-poo’d the thought that I would be able to tell store-bought pre-shredded or pre-grated cheese from the freshly done stuff. Well, I learned that I can tell the difference. And I see it too. The fresh stuff melts so much better. It’s creamier. Tastier. And it’s easy if you have a countertop manual shredder/grater like mine. And cleanup is easy too! Just take it apart and put it into the dishwasher!
