Instructions

  • Making the Dough by add all Ingredients in a bowl:
  • 4 cups Bread Flour
  • 1 3/4 cups Warm water
  • 2 teaspoon Dry Yeast
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • 2 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon of Olive Oil
  • After you mix all the ingredients, add the flour last and mix.
  • Drizzle with olive oil, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and cover with towel, and let it sit in a warm place to rest for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, fold it a couple of times, just like in the video. Wet your hands with water so the dough doesn't stick.
  • Cover with plastic wrap again and place in a warm spot for about 30 minutes. (I put mine in a turned-off oven with the light on to create a cozy place for my dough.)
  • Repeat the folding process and the 30-minute rest two more times.
  • Now we are ready to transfer our dough into the baking pan
  • Drizzle with olive oil into the pan and coat it all around.
  • Gently transfer the dough into the pan, and use your fingers to press and spread the dough out.
  • Rest the dough in a warm place again for 45 minutes before you bake it. Cover it with something that won't touch the surface of the dough once it rises.
  • I made another batch of dough so I can make 2 styles of toppings for my football party!
  • Repeat the same process as the first one, spreading the dough on the grease baking pan.
  • Rest the dough in a warm place again for 45 minutes before you bake it. Cover it with something that won't touch the surface of the dough once it rises.
  • After 45 minutes, both doughs are ready!
  • Now it's time for the toppings.
  • The first topping:
  • Rosemary (I put a big sprig in so I can take it out before I eat).
  • Note: If you like rosemary, you can chop it into small pieces.
  • Tomatoes
  • Olives
  • Coarse Sea Salt
  • Drizzle Olive Oil on top
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 450°F for about 20–25 minutes, or until it is as crispy as you like!
  • Topping #2 (Pizza Style):
  • Tomato sauce
  • Ham
  • Pepperoni
  • Tomatoes
  • Leftover vegetables from my fajitas
  • Mexican cheese blend
  • Note: You can add whatever you have on hand!
  • After 20 minutes, both of our focaccias are ready to enjoy!
