Olive and Sundried Tomatoes Quickbread is one of the yummiest breads ever! It tastes like a cross between a savory muffin and bread, and tastes delicious!
This olive and sundried tomatoes quickbread requires no rising time, well that is why its ‘quick’ bread, eh?
I think my posts for A-Z challenge are getting posted later and later in the day, I started with posting at 11am in the morning, then afternoon, then 4pm and now I am posting at 10pm :O but then I am happy that I am at least posting. I cannot believe that I have actually reached up to the letter ‘O’, that too with so much going on right now, kids workshop that take up half day of time in just running + the prep that happens later. Two major recipe projects running along with the usual stuff at home and regular work. I am actually pretty awesomely impressed with myself, I know I know, I am blowing my trumpet but once in a while can do no? 😉 * also a big anti jinx*
Everyone at home these days is excited and the topic of discussion is what is getting posted today? Ojas has his own ideas, his own options her wants me to implement and N has his own. The whole A-Z challenge has become a family exercise and we are all enjoying it.
With O, we are baking “Olive and sundried tomatoes quickbread“. This is my favourite fancy yet so easy breakfast recipe. Tastes almost like a cross between a savory muffin and a bread, with a little salsa and tabasco and it is delicious. It also works so beautifully as a part of the larger brunch menu as well as cocktail bites when cut in bite sized pieces
