Ingredients
- 2¼ teaspoon active dry yeast
- ¼ cup water lukewarm
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded
- ¼ cup black olives chopped
Instructions
- In a small bowl, or the bowl of your mixer, mix together the water, yeast and honey. Let sit until it's foamy.
- In your mixer bowl, add 1¼ cup of the all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, yeast mixture, milk, olive oil and salt and pepper. Using the paddle attachment, mix well.
- Add the olives and cheddar cheese to the mixer and continue mixing. Switch to the hook attachment.
- Add the remaining all purpose flour and mix for another 4 to 5 minutes, until the dough is nice and firm.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let the dough rise until doubled in size, for about an hour.
- Punch down the dough and place it on a floured surface. Knead it slightly a couple times, then roll it out into a long rectangle.
- Roll up the dough, jelly roll style.
- Place the roll in a greased loaf pan and let rise for another 45 minutes to an hour until it doubles in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375℉.
- Bake the bread for about 40 minutes, or until golden brown. When you tap it, it should sound hollow.
- Cool on a rack.
Notes
- Yeast Activation: Ensure your yeast is fresh and activated; the foamy appearance indicates it's ready to work its magic.
- Flour: For a denser bread, you can opt to use only all-purpose flour. On the contrary, increasing the whole wheat portion will offer a nuttier taste.
- Olives: Green olives can be a vibrant substitute for black olives, providing a slightly different flavor profile.
- Loaf Pan: For a crustier exterior, you can also shape the dough into a freeform loaf and bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Storage: This bread tastes best when fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. If planning to store longer, consider freezing.
