Add flour, sugar, baking powder, kosher salt, cayenne, and granulated garlic to a large mixing bowl, and stir to combine.

In a separate bowl, combine egg and milk, and slowly drizzle in melted butter. Add egg mixture to flour mixture, and stir until dry ingredients are just moistened.

Stir in Cheddar cheese and deli ham, and fold in olives. Batter will be stiff; do not overmix. Pour into the prepared pan.

Cool in the pan about 10 minutes, remove from the pan and cool on a rack, about 10 minutes more. Using a serrated knife, cut into slices and serve warm, or at room temperature.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Olive Precision 🫒Rinse and thoroughly pat dry the pimiento-stuffed olives to prevent excess moisture from making the bread soggy and ensure even distribution.
- Cheese Coating Technique 🧀Toss the grated cheddar cheese with a tablespoon of flour before mixing into the batter to prevent sinking and create a more even cheese distribution.
- Buttermilk Substitute Hack 🥛If you don't have milk, create a quick buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to the milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes to enhance the bread's tenderness.
- Spice Balance Master 🌶️Adjust the cayenne carefully - start with 1/4 teaspoon and taste the batter to ensure the heat complements rather than overwhelms the ham and cheese flavors.
- Golden Crust Secret 🥖Brush the top of the bread with an extra tablespoon of melted butter before baking to achieve a rich, golden-brown crust with a beautiful sheen.
