Ingredients
Method
Mix the Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir until you get a shaggy dough.
Let It Rise
- Cover your bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let it sit in a warm area of your kitchen for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Assemble in the Pan
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with olive oil. Gently transfer your risen dough to the pan, allowing it to stretch naturally. Drizzle a little more olive oil on top, and give it a good poke with your fingers.
Second Rise
- Cover it again for about 20-30 minutes. Feel free to add your favorite toppings during this time!
Bake
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake the focaccia for about 20-25 minutes or until it’s beautifully golden brown.
Cool and Enjoy
- Let it cool slightly in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice into squares and enjoy!
Notes
Keep ingredients at room temperature for better yeast activation. Experiment with toppings for enhanced flavor.
