Classic Italian Focaccia Flatbread (Ligurian & Toscana Styles): Salty, Herby, Soft, & Crispy
This classic, soft on the inside with a crispy exterior Focaccia recipe was inspired by the Focaccia Genovese style in Italy. There's a basic flour, water, yeast, olive oil, and salt dough with a few extra ingredients. The toppings can vary, but a simple brine of olive oil, water, and salt are all you need for a great, flavorful Focaccia flatbread to eat as a snack or to go with your next meal. Check out my optional meat and cheese toppings for added flavor!

This Mini Focaccia is a Bread Game Changer
Recipe:
It's your favorite dimpled, fluffy Italian bread recipe — but make it small enough for one meal! It's baked in a loaf pan so every slice gets an edge piece, and can be customized with herbs, garlic, olives, or whatever suits your taste buds best. Whether it becomes a gorgeous sandwich like Martin makes here, or a shared savory treat with delicious fix-ins, Small-Batch Cheesy Focaccia is that trendy recipe you've got to try for yourself.
King Arthur Bread Flour:

Set of 10 Bowl Covers:
Focaccia variations in this video:
Plain: Top the dough with additional olive oil and coarse salt. Bake for 17 to 22 minutes.
Rosemary-Olive: Add pitted olives to taste (1/2 cup or so) and freshly minced rosemary. Bake for 17 to 22 minutes.
Garlic Confit and Lemon: Break up 1 bulb of garlic and simmer the cloves in olive oil for 20 minutes.
Top the dough with the garlic, fresh lemon zest, and coarse salt to taste. Bake for 17 to 22 minutes.
Sandwich: Season some sliced bell peppers, halved roma tomatoes, and garlic cloves with olive oil, salt, and pepper. While the oven preheats, roast the vegetables on a cookie sheet until jammy, withered, and browned on the bottom. Martin dressed his sandwich with basil mayonnaise, Scamorza cheese (smoked mozzarella), and the vegetables.
