Olive - Cheese Quick Bread image

Very pretty presentation! Loaded with salty green olives in a savory cheesy bread, this really hits the spot along-side a thick soup on a cold winter's evening. Try it with Potato & Ham Soup OR Clam Chowder. Enjoy the colors when you cut the slices!

Time 45m

Yield 1 loaf, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups flour
3 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 egg, room temp
3/4 cup milk (or buttermilk or water)
1/4 cup oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion (optional)
35 stuffed green olives
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Grease a loaf pan; set aside. Preheat oven to 350.
  • In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients and the cheese; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, lightly beat egg; stir in milk and oil, mixing well.
  • Add onion to the egg-milk, mix; then stir into flour mixture--do not over-mix, just get things moist.
  • Spoon half of batter into prepared pan. Arrange 28 olives on their sides, 4 rows of 7 olives each.
  • Spoon remaining batter over the olives, smoothing the top with the back of the spoon.
  • Place remaining 7 olives evenly spaced down the center of the top of the loaf.
  • Brush with olive oil (or spray).
  • Bake 35-45 minutes until wooden pick comes out clean.
  • Let stand 10 minutes---this is really important or the loaf will sort of fall apart when you cut it :-(.
  • VARIATIONS: Use a different type of cheese for a whole different flavor. How about a different kind of olive? Mmmmm -- .
