Ingredients:
3 1/2 oz (100g) of bacon
7 oz (200g) city ham, already cooked — sold as “ready to serve”. Still, on the bone, it’s better! If you don’t want to bring back the whole ham at home, ask your butcher to slice it off for you.
5 fl ounces (15cl) of white wine
3 1/2 oz (100g) black olives
3 1/3 fl ounces (10cl) olive oil
4 Eggs
2 1/2 c (250g) all-purpose flour
3 1/2 oz (100g) green olives
1 tsp of baking powder (about 5g)
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp chopped parsley
5 oz (150g) grated swiss cheese or cheddar
1 large onion
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 350 degrees F or 175 degrees C.
Apply cooking spray or brush butter to a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Add eggs, salt, wine, and oil into a large mixing bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated.
In another mixing bowl, add baking powder and flour. Whisk until well blended.
Transfer the flour mixture into the bowl with the egg mixture, then whisk until well combined.
Place a skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add bacon and cook for a few minutes until crisp.
Finely chop the onion, then add it to the skillet. Saute for a few minutes until soft.
Transfer the bacon and onion onto a clean plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
Slice the ham, parsley, and olives into small pieces.
Add everything to the bowl with the egg mixture. Stir until well incorporated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about an hour or until a toothpick comes out clean after inserting it in the middle.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes at room temperature before serving.
Serve and enjoy!
