This is the best focaccia recipe you will ever make. Don’t be turned off by the total recipe time. The majority of the time is dough proofing which is how you get the great flavor. I love to make this focaccia bread for sandwiches, to use as a pizza crust, and to be served alongside soup.

Instructions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl stir together the yeast, warm water, agave, 1 Tbsp olive oil, and salt until combined

Step 2

Add bread flour and mix with a spoon until all dry ingredients are blended

Step 3

Cover with a cloth and let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes

Step 4

Stretch and fold the dough from the top upwards and then down towards the bottom of the dough

Step 5

Repeat this action on all sides of the dough until it feels like you have created tension and you cannot stretch the dough up and over anymore

Step 6

Let the dough rest for 10 minutes and repeat fold action one more time

Step 7

Wet hands gather dough and place seam side down in a bowl so that the top is smooth

Step 8

Give the dough a generous drizzle of olive oil and rub over the top of the dough

Step 9

Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest in the fridge for 24 - 48 hours (the longer the more flavor)

Step 10

Prepare a 9” x 13” baking sheet with oil and parchment paper

Step 11

Drizzle 2 Tbsp olive oil on the parchment paper and spread evenly

Step 12

Remove dough from fridge and place it on the tray

Step 13

Oil hands and fold one side of the dough towards the middle and repeat with other side; like folding a piece of paper into thirds

Step 14

Flip the dough so that the seam side is down

Step 15

Cover using another tray flipped upside down (do not use plastic wrap or a towel because the dough will stick)

Step 16

Let sit for 2 ¼ hours or until the dough fills the tray

Step 17

Preheat oven to 425°

Step 18

Once dough is jiggly drizzle top with olive oil and sprinkle with herbs, garlic power, garlic slices, and vegan parmesan

Step 19

Oil hands and press fingers into dough, gently touching the bottom of the tray until entire surface is dimpled

Step 20

Sprinkle top of dough with flakey salt

Step 21

Bake for 18 - 22 minutes on the lowest rack; remove from oven once it is golden brown

Step 22

Let the bread cool for a couple of minutes and move to a cooling rack so it stays crisp

Step 23

Let cool for 15 - 20 minutes before cutting
