olive bread

Kalamata-studded baked good

Olive bread is bread made with olives baked into the dough, typically using black or kalamata olives.

The olives may be whole, halved, or chopped, and the bread often includes olive oil and Mediterranean herbs like rosemary.

It's served with meals, used for sandwiches, or eaten on its own: The olive bread was still warm from the bakery.
