Rachel: Thanks for your comments about this recipe. This is the way my Aunt Mary made it. When I visited my relatives in Italy last year, my cousin’s wife give me her special recipe which does have a lot of olive oil. I do like it better. Here’s that version.

I had never had crescia before and I’ve been trying to replicate this special bread for my husband’s family. The other recipes I tried weren’t quite right but they said this one was it!
I did 2 things differently, I didn’t have milk so I used all water. The dough came out a little dry so I kneaded in 1-2 Tablespoons of olive oil to moisten it( after hearing complaints that it often came out dry when the grandmother ‘s made it). It came out moist with a nice hearty texture.
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
