Focaccia bread
Focaccia is a delicious Italian flatbread that is typically seasoned with olive oil, salt, and herbs such as rosemary. It has a soft and chewy texture, making it perfect for sandwiches or enjoying on its own.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Toppings of your choice:
- rosemary
- sea salt
- cherry tomatoes
- olives
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Gradually pour in the yeast mixture and 1/4 cup of olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a baking sheet and press the dough onto it, stretching it to fit the pan.
- Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the dough and add your desired toppings, gently pressing them into the dough.
- Bake the focaccia in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Allow the focaccia to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
