Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 1.25 cups Warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 0.5 teaspoon Coarse sea salt (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil (for brushing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, salt, dried rosemary, dried thyme, dried oregano, and garlic powder. Stir with a whisk until well mixed.
Gradually add the olive oil and warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 8–10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Alternatively, you can mix and knead the dough using a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment for 5–6 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to the prepared pan. Press the dough evenly into the pan, spreading it out to the edges.
Use your fingers to poke deep dimples all over the surface of the dough. Brush the top generously with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
Let the dough rest for another 15 minutes while the oven finishes preheating.
Bake the focaccia in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Remove from the oven and allow the focaccia to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
