That actually looks pretty good.

I haven’t thought about the ever-present baking powder biscuits my mom used to make for a while. I guess it isn’t used as much anymore. Even if I do t add olives, I might have to whip up a batch.

This dough would make great biscuits! Report back!

I saw your post on Threads and decided to make this. I kept very close to the recipe except for the sugar. I used somewhat less.

As for your suggestion that you put the pimiento in the microwave with some vinegar. I did that too, using a shot of balsamic vinegar.

The recipe is fantastic. I tried a slice with some butter after it had cooled down for a few minutes. Immediately ate another slice.

My mom who doesn't like olives ate it and asked for seconds.

Took it to a BBQ yesterday and my friends loved it too.

What a great find.

Your grandma must have been so cool to come up with this recipe. Thanks for sharing it.

I gotta adjust this to be gluten free, because I LOVE olives and pecans and want to eat this.

I think King Arthur's one to one GF flour mix might work. It works for this similar soda bread recipe. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/gluten-free-cheesy-soda-bread-recipe
