Ingredients

220g Cherry Bocconcini
2 tbsp butter, softened
4 tbsp olive oil
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup pitted olives
1 tbsp rosemary leaves
1 tsp sea salt
for the dough
500g bread flour
400ml water, room temperature
3g yeast
1 tsp sea salt

Preparation

1 For dough, place water in a large bowl, add flour, yeast and salt and mix well with a wooden spoon. Cover with glad wrap and set aside for 20 minutes.
2 Stretch and fold the dough by lifting an edge of the dough and folding it over itself, rotate the bowl a quarter and repeat the fold. Rotate and repeat twice more.
3 Cover with glad wrap and set aside for 20 minutes. Repeat the stretch and fold twice more.
4 Grease a 20x30cm deep baking tray with butter and add the dough, stretching it to fill the base of the tray. Cover with glad wrap and refrigerate overnight.
5 Remove the dough 2 hours before baking, keeping it covered.
6 Preheat the oven to 220°C.
7 Drizzle the dough with olive oil and gently dimple the surface with your fingertips.
8 Place the tomatoes, olives and rosemary inside the dimples and sprinkle with sea salt.
9 Bake for 10 minutes, remove from the oven and add/press in the bocconcini.
10 Bake for a further 2 minutes, or until golden and the bocconcini has melted.
11 Allow to cool in the tray for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
