📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2
Bring a saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook for ⏱️ 2 minutes, then drain immediately and run under cold water until completely cool to stop it from cooking further.
3
Grease and line an 8 × 4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
4
Place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, turmeric, chile powder and sugar in a large bowl and whisk well to combine. Fold in the cheddar, chives, and olives.
5
In another large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sour cream, and egg until smooth. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

Press the broccoli into the batter so the florets are standing up like trees (you may have a few pieces left over—snack on those!). Bake for 1–1 ¼ hours until the top is golden and an inserted skewer comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for ⏱️ 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
