Instructions

1. Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with avocado oil spray, line it with parchment, grease again, then add the cornmeal and tap until it coats all sides. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl, whisk the warm water, yeast and a pinch of the 1 tablespoon sugar. Rest 5 minutes, until foamy.
3. In a stand mixer bowl fitted with the paddle, combine the flour, black pepper, remaining sugar, salt and baking soda. Add 1 cup Parmesan and mix until incorporated.
4. Swap the paddle for the dough hook. Add the buttermilk, 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon avocado oil and the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed for 5 to 6 minutes, until soft and sticky.
5. Scrape the dough into the prepared pan and press it into all the corners with your fingers. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan and the 1 tablespoon cornmeal.
6. Cover loosely and let rise in a warm place for 60 to 90 minutes, until doubled.
7. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
8. Bake for 23 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.
9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then move to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing.
