Add the egg/cheese mixture to the flour mixture and, using a spatula, gently combine. Pour into the prepared pan and spread the dough out smoothly and evenly.
• Bake on the middle shelf for 50 minutes. Remove and, using a pastry brush or the back of a kitchen spoon, brush with the olive oil. Sprinkle on the remaining 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese and bake another 10 to 15 minutes. If the bread appears pale, place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to melt the cheese and give the bread a rich golden color. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
