Our Easy Rosemary Focaccia Recipe

strong bread flour

dried fast action yeast (1 sachet)

2tsp salt

olive oil

water

sea salt

rosemary, leaves picked

Place the flour in a large mixing bowl and add the yeast and the salt. Combine thoroughly. 

Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and add about 2tbsp of your olive oil and 400ml lukewarm water, pouring it in gradually to create a sticky dough. (You may not need all of the water)

Lightly flour a clean work surface and place the dough in the middle. Knead vigorously for 5-10 minutes (add more flour as you go to prevent sticking). The dough should become soft and smooth.

Cover the dough in a bowl and leave to prove for about an hour or until it has doubled in size.

Grease a shallow roasting tin with a little oil. Stretch the dough to fill the tin. Cover with a tea towel and allow to rest for another 45 minutes.

Heat your oven to 220°C (200°C in a fan oven). 

Push your fingers into the risen dough in the tin to make dimples. Mix 1½tbsp olive oil with 1tbsp water and the tsp of flaked sea salt. Drizzle this mixture over the dough evenly and scatter over the rosemary, pushing the leaves into the dimples.

Bake your focaccia for about 20 minutes until golden and then drizzle over the last of the olive oil. Divide into squares and serve warm. Buon appetito!

Meanwhile, add the flour, salt, 1/4 cup of olive oil, chopped rosemary, and roasted garlic to the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the dough hook attachment, turn the mixer on briefly to allow the ingredients to mix together. Pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture with the mixer running on low. Increase the speed to medium and let the mixer run for 4-5 minutes. Stop and scrape the dough if all the flour doesn't incorporate fully.

Transfer the dough into a large bowl that has been greased. Rub a dime size of olive oil on the surface of the dough and cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Allow it to rest in a warm place for 1-1 1/2 hours or until it's nearly doubled in size. I usually do this in my dryer (see notes!)

Remove from the oven, drizzle or brush with a little bit more olive oil and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving!

Lovely grapes, chewy and savory no-knead focaccia, what&#039;s not to love about this perfect Grape and Rosemary Focaccia recipe?

Grape and Rosemary Focaccia Recipe

(15 ounces 422 grams) all-purpose flour

yeast

(10 ½oz/282 milliliters) water, (room temperature)

olive oil, (divided)

(14 ounces 400 grams) Concord grapes, (divided)

chopped rosemary, (divided)

honey, (divided)

In a large bowl combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the water and stir with a large spoon  (or your hand) until the flour is completely incorporated. The dough will be sticky and that&#039;s ok.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap (or a shower cap) and a kitchen towel and let it sit at room temperature for 18-24 hours.

The Day Before:

Pour 1 tablespoon olive oil into a 10&quot; baking pan. Using your fingertips, scrape roughly ½ the dough out of the bowl into the baking pan and turn it to coat it with oil. Spread out the dough to the sides of the pan. (allow the dough to relax for 20 minutes if it springs backs when shaping)

Once the dough is spread out in the pan sprinkle over the roughly ½ the grapes, rosemary, and honey.

Place on the remaining dough and do your best to carefully cover the filling while stretching it out to the corners of the pan.

Add the remaining grapes, rosemary, honey, and olive oil over the top. Lastly, sprinkle over the sea salt.

Cover the baking pan with plastic wrap and a towel and let the dough to proof for about 45 minutes.

Before baking pre-heat the oven to 425°F (210°C).

When ready, using only your fingers to dimple the surface of the dough. This creates that lovely bubbly focaccia texture.

Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.

Enjoy fresh from the oven! Store leftovers at room temperature, covered for up to 3 days.

* This can be baked in a rectangular pan 10 inches x 7 inches, or similar.

The Next Day:

Fig Olive Rosemary Whole Wheat Focaccia is easy to make, absolutely delicious, wholesome, and the perfect balance of sweet and salty. It&#039;s the perfect addition to an appetizer spread or cheeseboard, and it&#039;s also a wonderful bread to use for sandwiches, or just to snack on! You won&#039;t be able to get enough of the soft, fluffy, pizza-like dough and crisp edges!

Fig Olive Rosemary Whole Wheat Focaccia

active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)

honey

Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Wheat Flour

extra virgin olive oil, divided

rosemary

olives,

figs,

flaky sea salt

Place your yeast in a large mixing bowl (or the bowl of your stand mixer), along with the warm water and honey. Stir to combine. Set aside for about 10 minutes, or until foam appears on the surface. If your yeast doesn&#39;t foam, discard and try again. Either your water was too cool, or it was too hot.

To your yeast, add the whole wheat flour, salt, and 4 tablespoons of the olive oil. Mix in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment for 5 minutes. Once the dough is smooth and elastic, remove from the mixer and knead for an additional minute or so on a clean surface. Alternately, stir the ingredients together with a wooden spoon, and once the dough starts to come together, knead the dough for 5-6 minutes on a clean surface, dusted with flour to prevent sticking. Place the dough in an oiled bowl and cover with a dish towel. Let rise in a warm place for 1 hour - 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size. (I like to  preheat the oven to 400℉ to warm up the kitchen, turn it off, and place the bowl near or on top of the oven where it is giving off residual heat).

Once dough has risen, drizzle 2 tablespoons of oil into the bottom of a 9x13 sheet pan (half sheet pan). Punch down the dough, and press into the pan evenly, dimpling the dough with your fingertips, pressing all the way to the bottom of the pan, to create the focaccia &quot;dimples&quot;. Drizzle the top of the dough with a tablespoon of the olive oil. Cover with the same dish towel and let rise in a warm place for an additional 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 425℉. Once dough has finished its second rise, press the sliced figs and olives into the top of the focaccia dough. Drizzle with the last tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle with the rosemary and a couple big pinches of flaky salt. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until focaccia is golden brown on the edges and the top. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before removing from pan and slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This easy Rosemary Focaccia Bread recipe is easy to make and ready in under an hour so you can have fresh, warm bread with dinner tonight! Or use it to create thick, hearty sandwiches for lunch the next day!

Easy Rosemary Focaccia Bread

active dry yeast

Tablespoons granulated sugar, (divided)

all-purpose flour

coarse kosher salt

salted butter, (melted)

fresh rosemary, (coarsely chopped)

Proof yeast in bowl with the hot water and 1 tablespoon of the sugar until foamy.  Combine the flour, remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the salt. Stir in the proofed yeast and knead for 3-5 minutes, until smooth. Dough will be sticky.  Cover and let the dough rise for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°F while dough is rising.

Prepare a 9x13&quot; baking dish by coating with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Gently spread the dough into the pan, pushing it into the corners with your fingers and poking it gently with your fingers to create small craters over the top. Drizzle the melted butter of the bread and sprinkle with rosemary and salt.

Bake at 375°F for 15-20 minutes, until the top starts turning a light golden brown.  Serve warm.

Dry ingredients

In terms of toppings, I like to keep it simple with either rosemary & sea salt (+ black pepper occasionally) and on this occasion I went with cherry tomatoes, olives & garlic, which turns out wonderfully roasted when it comes out of the oven.

Hope you enjoy this one!

How To Make Vegan Focaccia with Tomatoes, Roasted Garlic & Olives | Simple Recipe

One Hour Rosemary Focaccia Bread is the hassle-free way to make homemade focaccia bread!  It&#039;s tender and fluffy with the flavors of garlic and rosemary and it&#039;s ready in one hour!

One Hour Rosemary Focaccia Bread

yeast (1/4 ounce package such as Fleischmann's Rapid Rise)

extra virgin olive oil (divided)

all purpose flour (divided (plus more for sprinkling the dough))

freshly grated parmesan (optional)

garlic (finely chopped (optional))

flaky sea salt for topping (optional)

Bloom yeast

Place the warm water and sugar in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (you can use an electric handheld mixer as well). Stir well to combine.  Sprinkle the yeast over the water and stir just a bit. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.

Prepare dough

Turn the mixer on low speed, and add 1 cup of the flour and 3/4 teaspoon of the salt and mix just until combined.  Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil mix until combined.  If using dried rosemary, you may add 1 teaspoon at this point.

Add flour

With the mixer on low, gradually add 1/2 cup of the remaining flour, then add just enough of the remaining 1/4 cup until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl (you may not need it all).

Grease pan

Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Grease a cast iron skillet or 8 - 9&quot; cake pan with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil.

Shape dough

Lightly flour a surface with flour. Remove the dough and place onto the floured surface and sprinkle the top lightly with flour as well.  Gently shape the dough into a flat disk and place in the prepared skillet.

Rise

Gently press the dough evenly in the bottom of the skillet and 1&quot; up the sides, then cover with a clean towel.  TURN OFF THE OVEN and place the skillet in the oven for 20 minutes to rise.

Preheat oven

Remove the skillet from the oven and remove the towel. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Combine olive oil mixture

In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, garlic, chopped rosemary, and parmesan if using.  If using dried rosemary, add 1/2-1 teaspoon.

Prep focaccia

Brush the olive oil mixture over the focaccia bread dough, then make indents over the top of the dough with your thumb.

Bake focaccia bread

Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven, and brush with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.  Cool slightly on a wire rack and enjoy!

This is my go to so my house smells amazing when having folks over. Thank you!!!

Made this tonight for dinner for my son and I.  We both really enjoyed it  I put cheese on it. We both love the cheesy bread from a take and bake place.  But we won't be purchasing theirs anymore.  So easy to make and I know what's in it. Definitely a keeper.

My husband has limited to his sodium intake per day so made this totally without salt other than the Parmesan cheese.  Turned out delicious and I’m now making it for the second time.  Highly recommend this as it’s easy and soooo good.

This recipe turned out perfectly! I topped with an assortment of chopped olives and chunks of feta! It was delicious and the perfect texture! Deliciously savory and salty!
Can’t believe how quickly it came together either!
I also absolutely LOVE how you wrote the recipe to include the ingredients and measurements on each step! So smart! It made it so much easier than reading the directions and then having to scroll back up to find the amounts! 
Thanks!!

I have a suggestion to start the oven to 200° right when you start making the focaccia, that way the oven will be ready.

This was so easy to put together and bake. Thank you for creating this and sharing. I will be sharing this with my friends.  I can't have olive oil and used Sunflower oil; it wasn't as tasty, but it was great knowing I can make Focaccia !

Sounds delicious. I like your changes and additions. I will try them too.

I made this recipe, followed it exactly and did water instead of milk, and baked it in a glass 8x8 baking dish so it was thicker. It was AMAZING and everyone asked me to share your recipe with them. Thanks!
