Directions
Sprinkle yeast over warm water in a small bowl.
Add sugar, stir and set aside until yeast starts to bubble.
Sift both flours and salt into large bowl.
Make a well in the center of flour mixture and pour in yeast and 2 tablespoons oil. Stir to make stiff dough.
Knead on floured surface until smooth, about 15 minutes.
Wash and oil the bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Return dough ball to bowl and turn to coat with oil.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk, about 1 hour.
In a small skillet, sauté onion in 2 tbsp olive oil for 5 minutes over medium heat until soft.
Cool.
Punch dough down and knead again on a well-floured surface.
Work onions and whole olives into dough as you knead.
Oil a baking tray or 9-inch loaf pan.
Shape dough into a ball and place on prepared tray or in pan.
Cover and let rise again in a warm place for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400℉ (200℃).
Bake loaf for 1 hour, until lightly browned.
Cool on wire rack.
