Steps:
- Combine the yeast, warm water, olive oil, with sugar and salt then stir until the yeast mixture is nicely combined. Let the mixture stand for around 10 minutes. Then add 1 cup of flour and mix with a dough hook for approximately 5 minutes. Add the flour continuously and slowly whilst mixing until the dough is soft. Let the dough mix for a further 7-8 minutes until it is lightly sticking to the bowl. Next, empty the dough onto a floured worktop and knead the mixture until soft and smooth. Once soft, place the dough in a bowl, cover the bowl with cling film and leave it to rise for approximately half an hour. Once the dough has risen, divide it into 4 balls, and roll each ball into a long loaf. Place each loaf onto a baking tray lined with a baking sheet, leaving at least a couple of inches gap between the loafs. Once again cover the loafs with cling film or plastic film and leave to rise. Wait until the loaves have doubled in size, approx an hour. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, 175 degrees Celsius or gas mark 4. Bake the loaves for 23-25 minutes, until very light brown. Remove the loaves from the oven and rub a small amount of butter on the top, and leave to cool. if(typeof ez_ad_units != 'undefined'){ez_ad_units.push([[250,250],'fastfood_recipes_com-medrectangle-4','ezslot_1',122,'0','0'])};if(typeof __ez_fad_position != 'undefined'){__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-fastfood_recipes_com-medrectangle-4-0')};

Steps:
- In a stand mixer mixing bowl, combine yeast, 1/2 c. warm water, and sugar. Stir until well combined and let stand for about 10 minutes until nice and foamy.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour and vital wheat gluten. Add 1 c. warm water to the yeast mixture (in the stand mixer bowl) and add flour/wheat gluten mixture until combined.
- Attach the bowl to the stand mixer and with the bread hook attachment, mix dough for about 3-4 minutes, adding a little flour if necessary- keeping it a little sticky.
- You want the dough to be sticky enough that it sticks to the bottom of the bowl a little bit, but not the sides.
- After 3-4 minutes, cut up 3 Tbsp. of cold butter into little cubes and add to the mixing bowl and add 1 Tbsp. salt. Mix an additional 5-6 minutes until butter is mixed in to the dough, pull the bread down off the hook if needed throughout the mixing process. Again, you want the dough to be slightly sticky and stretchy.
- Place dough in a large greased bowl and roll around a little to get it greased all around. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place for about an hour.
- Punch dough down and divide into 3 equal pieces (flour your hands if the dough is too sticky for easier handling). Roll out each piece into a 12" long loaf.. The dough should be the same thickness all the way across. Place on a non-stick baking sheet (I used a silicon baking mat) or a bread form pan. Cover and allow to rise 40-60 minutes, until dough doubles in size.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Bake in oven for 12-25 minutes (check at 12 minutes) until bread is golden brown. Remove from oven and lightly run a little cold butter over the top(this will soften it up nicely).
- Allow loaves to cool completely, then serve with all your favorite sub sandwich toppings!

- Add a bit more flavor by sprinkling a mixture of shredded cheddar cheese, garlic salt, and Italian seasoning over the dough before baking.

Some Important Tips for Subway Bread Recipe: If it's your first baking experience and you're not sure about how much flour you should add, then simply add enough flour to keep the dough soft and sticky. Because if you add too much flour, your dough will get hard and your bread will get hard too. Remember! You must use warm water for this recipe. Warm water helps the dough rise well. The temperature of the water should be around 110° If you don't have a stand mixer, no worries. You can simply mix all the ingredients in a bowl. The goal is to knead the dough well for 8 minutes to make the dough smooth. You can mix half of the wheat flour and half of the all-purpose flour to make the whole wheat subway buns out of this same recipe. It is recommended to add vital wheat gluten into the recipe if you want to make it soft and chewy just like the real subway bread. You can easily buy it at a nearby grocery store. It's a bit expensive but gives you soft and chewy bread that tastes and feels like the real subway bread. You can add 1 tbsp. of vital wheat gluten per 2 - 3 cups of flour. Additional Tips for Subway Bread You can use special sub molds available in the market to make your dough look exactly like the sandwich bread from the subway. These molds help the dough rise in exactly the same shape as the subway bread. But if you don't have those pans, simply skip them and shape the dough with your own hands. You can use the same recipe to make whole wheat bread. Just add whole wheat bread instead of all-purpose flour. Before putting your bread into the oven, top it up with some sesame seeds or shredded Parmesan cheese.

CLOSEST THING TO SUBWAY'S ITALIAN HERBS & CHEESE BREAD
At least this is the closest one you'll be able to find. Most likely. It's not going to look like they're bread, but I heard if you freeze it, let it sit out for a bit, roll it and then put it in regular bread pans in the oven and cook it to about 350 it should turn out closer to it...... But I'm too scared to try that, if you try it and you like it let me know! This recipe came from MC-Recipe Digest V1 #583 by Barbara Zack on Apr 21, 1997.
