I made this for KelBel's cookathon and so glad I found it. Such a delicious earthy bread, the seasonings go so well with the olives and walnuts. The perfect partner to pasta night. Thank you!

    I have made this bread quite a few times, and I thought I had reviewed it. And I see I didn't. Well, I love this bread with chili. It is so good for dipping in the chili. I make it when my DDIL comes to town, because DH hates olives and won't even try it. So in the winter when she is here, we have Vegetarian Chili and this bread. It is kinda our thing. Thanks for posting such a great recipe!

    Perfect bread! Smelling wonderful from the spices and the olives. I added some thinly sliced red bell pepper instead of the walnuts. Baked the bread in a 9x9 inch baking pan. It baked in exactly 40 minutes, nice golden crust, moist inside, no problem with crumbling. It cut beautiful in nice slices. Thanks so much for posting, this will surely be made again

    This is Great! It's unique and tasty. The herbs are not to strong and the olives salty taste is perfect in this. I used almond stuffed green olives and they are simply perfect in this. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because it wasn't baked in the 40 mins and in baking it till it was golden and done the outer crust became became dry and rather crumbly. The inside was moist and lovely though.
