Pour yeast mixture into well. Using fork, stir until dough comes together. Knead in bowl, adding enough flour 1/4 cup at a time to form slightly sticky dough.
Transfer to floured work surface. Knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Coat bowl with 1 tablespoon oil.
Add dough; turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap.
Let stand in warm draft-free area until doubled, about 1 hour 15 minutes.

Transfer dough to prepared tart pan or baking sheet. Cover loosely with plastic.
Let rise until dough is almost doubled, about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Press fingertips into dough, creating indentations.
Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
Bake until golden, about 28 minutes. Cool bread in pan on rack 10 minutes.
Remove bread from pan; cool completely.
