Activate Yeast: Combine 1 packet of active dry yeast, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 cup of warm water in a small bowl. Stir and let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Prepare Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning. Pour in yeast mixture and mix until a shaggy dough forms.

First Rise: Transfer dough to a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for about 1 hour until doubled.

Prepare Topping: Mix 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder in a small bowl.

Shape Dough: Punch down risen dough, divide into two portions, and shape into loaves. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Second Rise: Cover shaped loaves and let rise for 30-45 minutes in a warm spot until puffy.

Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Add Topping and Bake: Brush loaves with olive oil, sprinkle topping mixture, and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Cool & Serve: Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
