We are back with our A-Z of Ingredients series and this week we are at O is for Olives.  Olives are an aquired taste.  I love them as does Mini, but MadDad and Maxi not so much.  Both of them loved the damper bread with olives.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 – 1 cup milk
  • pinch of salt
  • Small amount of chopped olives

This will make two sticks.  We make a savory one with olives and also a plain one to spread with Nutella or jam.

Method

Rub the butter through the flour until it is all crumbly. When the boys were smaller we called it tickling the flour and butter.

Mix the salt, sugar and a little milk at a time until  it forms a dough.

chopping olives

Add your chopped olives.
