Ingredients

• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 1 packet Active dry yeast
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Yellow mustard
• 4 oz Thinly sliced ham
• 4 oz Genoa salami
• 4 oz Thinly sliced turkey
• 4 slices Mozzarella cheese
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine warm water, milk, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until bubbly.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and softened butter. Knead until a smooth dough forms.

Step 3

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.

Step 4

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 5

Divide the dough into equal portions (4 if making individual sandwich rolls). Flatten into circles and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 6

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Step 7

While the bread is cooling, mix mayonnaise and mustard together to make a spread.

Step 8

Slice the cooled bread in half horizontally. Spread the mayo-mustard mixture generously on both halves.

Step 9

Layer the bottom half of the bread with sliced ham, salami, turkey, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and a sprinkle of Parmesan.

Step 10

Add black olives and green olives evenly over the cheese layers.

Step 11

Place the top half of the bread over the layers and press gently.

Step 12

Wrap the sandwich in parchment or foil and heat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Step 13

Cut into slices and serve warm.
