I’ve been baking for over 50 years and I never get tired of trying new recipes for my family, friends and co-workers. Baking actually relaxes me. I feel like an artist creating a masterpiece of love. This savory loaf makes a great gift. —Paula Marchesi, Lenhartsville, PA

Ingredients

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1/4 cup each chopped pitted green and ripe olives

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. In a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, whisk flour, rosemary, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk eggs, buttermilk and melted butter until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Fold in 1/4 cup cheese, olives and onion.
