Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C and warm a baking tray inside.

Combine flour, rosemary, salt, oil, and 225ml water in a bowl until dough forms.

Knead the olives into the dough on a floured surface.

Shape the dough into a 20cm round and place it on the warm tray.

Press a floured wooden spoon handle into the dough to create an indent.

Repeat indentations to create eight triangular portions.

Bake for 35 minutes until the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
