Olive Bread Recipe
I read a bunch of different recipes and played with a couple from instagram, here is what I modified everything to:
Ingredients:
400 g All Purpose Flour
3/4 tsp instant yeast
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup chopped green olives, or honestly anything
300 ml warm water (I try to get it to 105-115 degrees for the yeast)
Steps:
Add all dry ingredients (Flour, yeast, sugar, salt) into a medium (or large) bowl and mix
Add the olives and mix
SLOWLY add the warm water until incorporated into a shaggy dough
Try to form it into a ball (don't knead it)
Rest for 2 hours
After 2 hours, add a LITTTTTTLE flour and fold it over itself like 5 times
you'll feel it tightening up a bit, thats okay
Pinch it into a ball
Rest for 30 min, during this time you can preheat your oven and dutch oven at 450 degrees
Once the oven and dutch oven is preheated, and the 30 min are done from the resting, you can place the ball onto a parchment paper and into the dutch oven, and the dutch oven into the oven
BAKE at 450 degrees. COVERED for 30 min, and then uncovered for 8-12 min at 400 degrees
I will add photos when I make it again!
