Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound frozen pizza and Italian bread dough
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 egg white
10 pitted country olives -- (to-12) halved
1/3 cup slivered almonds
1/2 teaspoon dried herbs de Provence
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
To Finish: More extra-virgin olive oil and
sea salt while baking

Rub dough with olive oil; wrap in plastic and let thaw 2 to 4 hours at
room temperature or overnight in refrigerator.

Stretch dough into a 10-inch circle and place on a baking sheet lined with
greased foil.

Mix egg white with 1 teaspoon water and brush mixture over dough.

With a paring knife, cut a few slits throughout dough, using fingers to
stretch slits into circles (so it looks like a pretzel]. Press olives and
almonds into dough. Sprinkle with herbs and sea salt.

Cover with plastic and let rise 1 hour, until bigger but not doubled.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F.

Brush dough with more egg white mixture, discarding what isn't used. Bake
10 minutes.

Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Reduce heat to 350°F and
bake 20 to 30 minutes more, until golden brown. Let cool, and serve.
