In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Add the oil, sugar, salt, garlic powder, and oregano and 2 cups of flour. Using an electric mixer, combine the ingredients on low speed. Then, increase the speed to medium and beat for 3 minutes, scraping the bowl occasionally. Stir in the remaining flour and the pepperoni. Scrape the batter down from the sides of the bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm place (80 degrees F) until double in bulk (45 to 60 minutes). Stir the batter down and spread evenly in a greased 9 x 5 x 8 cm loaf pan. Cover and let rise until double (30 to 40 minutes). Preheat oven to 190ºC . and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on a rack before slicing. Makes one 9 x 13 cm loaf. Shared and MM by Judi M. Phelps. jphelps@shell.portal.com or jphelps@best.com ----
