Prepare the bread dough and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle.

Spread mustard evenly over the dough.

Layer ham slices over the mustard.

Add bacon strips on top of the ham.

Sprinkle olives, raisins, and chopped hard-boiled eggs over the meat.

Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other to form a log.

Seal the edges and place the log seam-side down on a baking sheet.

Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar.

Let the dough rise for another 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown.

Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
