Sunflower seeds are more affordable and nut-free.

Combine bread flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

Add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients.

Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then knead for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C) and place a baking stone or sheet inside.

Punch down the dough and shape it into a round loaf.

Dust the surface with cornmeal to prevent sticking.

Let the shaped loaf rest for 30 minutes, covered with a towel.

Score the top of the loaf with a sharp knife to allow for expansion.

Transfer the loaf onto the preheated baking stone or sheet.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden and sounds hollow when tapped.

Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack before slicing.
