• Bake 350 for 35- 45 minutes until golden.
• Cool slightly before slicing.

• Place the ingredients, except olives, in the bread pan in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer.
• Process on the appropriate cycle.
• Add olives at the raisin/nut signal or 5 to 10 minutes before last kneading cycle ends.
• I prefer to make it with the dough cycle; shape it in 2 loaves and let is rise for 30 minutes.
• Bake in a pre heated375* oven for 30 minutes.
• Option:.
• Add 1 1/2 cup old or sharp shredded cheddar cheese with the flour for a Cheese Olive Bread; fantastic.

KALAMATA OLIVE AND GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl dissolve sugar in 1/2 cup warm water. To proof yeast, stir in yeast and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes in a warm place.
• Preheat oven to 105 degree F (40 degrees C). Warm an oven-safe bowl in the oven.
• Place flour in bowl of food processor. Add salt and pulse for a few seconds.
• Start food processor. Pour proofed yeast into flour through hole. Immediately add the additional 3/4 cup warm water, then the olive oil. Process for about 1 minute or until dough ball cleans the sides of the processor bowl. If dough is too wet add a little flour through the top while processing, or if too dry, add a little more water.
• Turn off food processor. Remove lid and transfer dough to the heated bowl. Cover with a plate or plastic wrap.
• Let rise for a half hour in a warm place, like the lukewarm oven.
• In a small bowl, combine minced garlic and chopped olives. Set aside.
• Once dough has risen, transfer dough to a lightly floured board. Make an indentation in the dough and place olive mixture inside. Knead dough 10 times. Bulk of mixture should remain in middle of dough. Form dough into a log or round loaf shape.
• Grease a pie pan (for a round loaf) or a baking sheet (for a log) and dust with cornmeal. Place loaf on prepared pan, cover with greased plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake bread in preheated oven until browned and loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.

OLIVE ROSEMARY SOURDOUGH

Steps:

• Mixing and Bulk Fermentation
• Thoroughly mix the flours, water, starter, and salt in a bowl that has enough room for the dough to double in size.
• Add the olives and rosemary and continue mixing until they're evenly distributed. Note the level of the dough and the time. Cover the dough and let it rest on your counter for 30 minutes.
• With damp fingertips, stretch and fold the dough, lifting the edges of one side of the dough and folding it over to the other side. Go around the bowl 2 to 3 times, stretching and folding, and stop when the dough feels tighter. Cover and let the dough rest again for 30 minutes.
• Perform three more rounds of stretching and folding as in step 2, separated by 30-minute rests.
• When the dough has almost doubled in size and the surface is puffy and bubbly, end the bulk fermentation. Depending mostly on temperature, this will likely be 6 to 10 hours from mixing.
• Pre-Shaping, Bench Rest, and Shaping
• Scrape the dough out of the bowl onto a well-floured countertop and pre-shape it into a ball.
• Cover the dough with your inverted mixing bowl and let it bench rest for about 20 minutes.
• Flour the top of the dough and use your bench knife to flip it onto the floured side. Shape the dough into the appropriate shape for your baking vessel.
• Final Proof
• Let your shaped dough rest on its seam while you flour your proofing basket, then place the dough in the basket seam-side up.
• Cover the basket and let the dough rise for another 1 to 3 hours for the final proof. The dough will expand in the basket but not double in size. If you want to bake much later, you can do the final proof in the refrigerator for 10 to 12 hours and bake the dough directly from the cold.
• Baking and Storage
• Before the end of the final proof, preheat your oven and baking vessel for 30 minutes at 500°F (or 450°F if that is the heat limit of your baking vessel).
• Remove your dough from the refrigerator, flip it out of the basket onto a piece of parchment paper, and score the top of your dough.
• Transfer the parchment and dough to the base of your baking vessel, cover, and return the vessel to the oven.
• Bake for 20 minutes and then drop the oven temperature to 450°F. After another 10 minutes, take off the lid, and after another 5 to 10 minutes, remove the bread from the oven. The internal temperature should be 205°F or higher.
• Let the bread cool on a rack for about 2 hours before slicing.
• Store the bread cut-side down on your cutting board with a cloth over it. Slice and freeze after 3 to 4 days.
