Bread with Nuts and Olives Instructions

  1. Grind the nuts and fry in a skillet over medium heat. Remove the frying pan from heat and set aside. In a large bowl, combine yeast, salt, sugar, pepper, and 2 cups flour. In a small saucepan over low heat, heat oil and 1 1/2 cups of water to 50 degrees. Use a wooden spoon to mix the warm liquid with the flour mixture. Add 2 cups flour and knead to a soft dough. Place the dough on a floured board, knead for 5 minutes until elastic, using 1/2 cup flour. Roll the dough into a ball, cover with cling film and leave warm for 10 minutes.
  2. Grease a large baking sheet with oil. Roll out a 30×37.5 cm rectangle on a floured surface. Sprinkle with chopped olives and nuts. Roll up.
  3. Place the roll on an oiled baking sheet, seam side down. Make shallow cuts on top with a knife. Cover with cling film and place in a warm place for 15 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Bake bread with olives and nuts for 35-40 minutes until slightly golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Serve the bread with nuts and olives warm or chilled.
