I read that the next time this happens I should spread it out in a sheet pan and make foccicia.

So the overpoofed Easter loaf was over proofed. I punched it down and let it proof another 4 hours then baked it.
Definitely still overproofed. Kind of sticky, wouldn’t shape, impossible to score. Actually rose a little but not a lot.
A bit dense, a bit chewy but the most delicious bread I’ve ever eaten! Very sour (yes!), absolutely perfect dipped in evoo and balsamic with cracked pepper and shaved Romano cheese. We ate every crumb.
I might make all of my bread that way.

I am!

Have gone back to adding 20 g or so of EVOO.
The flowers are the ones that the rabbits chewed off my Virginia bluebells last week. They opened up!
@Steve-Miller , I think of you every time I make sourdough bread now.

Had about a pound of leftover bread, so decided to try the recipe. Just out of the oven, resting.
Overall rating: 4/5 stars.
Notes and observations:
We used a sharpish cheddar cheese instead of gruyere. Probably should have stuck with the gruyere or a Swiss of some sort. Felt like it needed to be "nuttier".
The rosemary didn't sound like what we wanted, so we just used some dried fines herbs. Fresh something would be better.
Didn't have green olives, used Kalamata instead.
I think next time I would use half-and-half instead of whole milk. Felt like it needed a little more richness.
The combination of leeks (I use the green parts) and red peppers makes it very Christmas-y.
I like veggie things but felt like it needed a little something meaty. I think I'll add some Lombardi Italian turkey sausage next time around; it's practically indistinguishable from the pork Italian sausage but much less fat. Diced ham, even a small amount, would be another good addition.
All in all, definitely a good base recipe that we plan to adjust/embellish. It was very tasty and filling and a great way to use up leftover bread.

Definitely will ditch the molasses, though. That sounds plain weird.
