Instructions
Preparation Steps
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, and salt.
Add the warm water and olive oil. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Knead the dough in the bowl for 2-3 minutes, or on a lightly floured surface for 1-2 minutes until it comes together. It will be slightly sticky.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with olive oil.
Gently transfer the dough to the prepared pan. Use your fingers to dimple the dough, creating indentations across the surface.
Drizzle generously with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt flakes and rosemary, if using.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
Serve focaccia warm. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
