Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center.

  2. In a separate bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.

  3. Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the well in the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  7. Punch down the dough and knead in the chopped olives and rosemary until well distributed.

  8. Shape the dough into a round loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with a towel and let it rise for another 30 minutes.

  9. Using a sharp knife, make a few diagonal slashes on top of the loaf. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.

  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

  11. Allow the bread to cool before slicing and serving.
