Spanish Bread

I don't know if it's really Spanish, but the olive oil used in its preparation gives it a special aroma and texture. It was appreciated by everyone who tasted it, I really recommend you try it, especially since it is made quickly and easily.

I did the first tasting when they were hot, I greased them with a little fresh olive oil and I sprinkled a little salt - delicious!

Very soft and cold, even the 2nd and 3rd day - one of the compliments was something like - "as if bought" so soft and tender it is. Sofia told me to make her more Spanish Bread, because it's good :)

Good appetite!
