Ahh, Mondays. They do show up rather magically, don't they? Hope you all had a fabulous weekend.
It's really feeling like Autumn these days, so I thought this bread would be perfect for the rapidly fading summer, and fast approaching Autumn (fave season!).
Olive and Rosemary Mini Breads - makes 8 loaves.
2 teaspoons dry active yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup lukewarm milk
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup kalamata olives broken up into pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons rosemary sprigs
olive oil for brushing
Place flour, salt, yeast mixture and oil in a bowl and mix until a nice smooth dough forms. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Next, knead in the olives and rosemary until blended in. You may need to add a bit more flour as the olives will add some wetness to the dough.
That's it for today. Have a good Monday everyone!

They look delicious, these Mini-loafs, perfect for a lovely fall table setting! It's really autumn here as well, too soon for my taste, but then - yes, it does have nice things in store. Thanks for sharing the recipe :)
So cute and appealing, with that upmarket restaurant touch. Whenever a house next door to yours comes up for sale, do let me know. I'll buy it and call round every Monday, for no particular reason. Just to be friendly. Yes, that's all.
I came to you through Blogging Your Way. What a beautiful post! I love your photos and recipe! I should try your bread. I'm a bit lazy when it comes to baking, but the bread looks very appetizing in your photo. Kaho
They look so pretty, made me almost want to hang them at home, like paintings!
I love rosemary and my daughter love olives!
So, I have to translate your recipe in german, and then I must bake this lovely little breads!!!!!!
Your photos are great!
Have a nice day,

Oh I can just imagine what these would taste like with olive oil and balsamic vinegar!
This has to be one of my favourite flavour combinations.
Beautiful photos!
wow. every week these get yummier and yummier...
These look delicious! Gorgeous photos too. Have just discovered you via the BYW course. Enjoy the rest of your week :)
Good job Janis! Yeast breads are tough! I recall making some hot cross buns from scratch in 2005 and there were numerous rising, kneading, folding in fruit, rising... they eventually rose. Taste was good too, not great though.
The citrus fruit factor was challenging as my buns were kinda tough (wish my buns were tough but actually kinda soft -hahah). Anyway, your bread looks great and i love rosemary. nice one again Janis. xo
Stop it. These look amazing and I'm not only talking about your photograph. Yum.
oooohhhh..they really are beautiful...i will be making these...would be wonderful in the evening with wine and cheese
beautiful photography..as always
sending love,
kary and teddy

Freshly baked bread made into perfectly tiny loaves, adorable.

What temp do you bake these at?
Anonymous, sorry about that! Bake at 350f/180c.
What size mini bread tins did you use?
Deborah, they're 2.5"x4.5"x1.5".
This bread is delicious and the recipe was super simple!! I baked it as a single loaf and it worked out great. Baked for about 30 or so minutes at the same temperature.
