    Incredible!
    Tasty & fun quarantine project. Can be made with or without olives - I've done both, according to taste. Did in regular oven but not sure if it would work in a bread machine... - 3/27/21

    I'm not sure how this recipe would work out without the sugar to activate the yeast. I've never worked with fresh yeast. But the dry yeast definitely needs the sugar to activate it. If anyone tries this with the dry yeast I'd be curious to see how it turns out. I love olive and rosemary loaf. - 10/7/16
