Olive Bread For The Bread Machine Recipes

Steps:

• Use bread machine that produces 1 1/2-lb or larger loaf. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Measure remaining ingredients carefully. Follow manufacturer's directions for placing ingredients in bread machine pan.
• Select Basic/White cycle. Do not use delay cycle. Follow manufacturer's directions for starting machine.

Steps:

• Pour the water into the pan of a bread machine, then sprinkle in the yeast and sugar. Let the mixture sit in the bread machine until a creamy foam forms on top of the water, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle in the salt, then add olive oil, thyme, garlic powder, rosemary, and flour. Set the machine for light crust setting, and start the machine.

Steps:

• 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.
• Tip:.
• For my bread to rise, I heat 2 cups of water in microwave for 5 minutes; this creates steam. Leave water in microwave. Sit your bread in microwave OFF for 30 minutes.Your bread will rise really nice.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the oil, sugar, salt and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a firm dough., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch dough down. Roll into a 16-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Sprinkle olives to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams to seal and tuck ends under. Place seam side down on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 20 minutes., Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients into the bread machine bowl except the olives and yeast.
• Place the yeast in the yeast hopper and add the olives with 10 minutes remaining on the last kneading cycle.
• Walk away!

Steps:

• First prepare the onion. Sprinkle the slices with salt and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Then rinse and squeeze to drain. The onion will be softer and not as sharp tasting. Finely chop, you should have around 2 tablespoons.
• Pit the olives with a sharp knife and roughly chop.
• Add the olives, chopped onion, oregano, garlic and tomato paste together and grind in a little black pepper to taste.
• Set the bread machine on the basic cycle which is around 3 hours.
• Add the remaining ingredients into the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer, (mine is liquid first then solid) and then add the olive mixture at the beep for extras.
• Bake with a medium crust or dark if you like it that way.
• This bread is wonderful with a Greek salad or spread with tarama or eggplant dip.
