Pioneer Woman Olive Bread Recipe
The Pioneer Woman Olive Bread Recipe is soft, flavorful and easy to bake at home. This bread has a mild salty taste from olives.
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup chopped green or black olives
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease the loaf pan lightly. This helps the bread bake evenly and release easily later.
Mix Dry Ingredients
- Add flour, yeast, salt, sugar and oregano to a large bowl. Stir gently until everything blends well.
Add Wet Ingredients
- Pour warm water and olive oil into the dry mixture. Stir slowly using a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
Add Olives
- Add chopped olives to the dough. Mix gently so olives spread evenly without breaking apart too much.
Rest the Dough
- Cover the bowl with a clean towel. Let the dough rest for twenty minutes. This helps the yeast work.
Shape the Dough
- Transfer the dough into the prepared loaf pan. Spread it evenly using a spoon or wet hands.
Bake the Bread
- Place the pan in the oven. Bake for thirty to thirty-five minutes until golden brown on top.
Cool Before Slicing
- Remove the bread from the oven. Let it cool for ten minutes. This helps the bread hold shape.
Notes
- Chop olives small for even flavor in every bite.
- Use warm water, not hot, to protect the yeast.
- Do not overmix the dough.
- Let the bread cool before slicing.
- Brush top with olive oil for extra shine.
