Rosemary Focaccia Bread

I make this for my sandwiches for work every week...much more delicious than store bought stuff!:)




Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 package active dry yeast (.25 ounce)
  • 1/3 cup warm water
  • 1 & 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 whole wheat flour
  • olive oil




Instructions:
  1. In small bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in the warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes
  2. In a large bowl combine yeast mixture with flour. Stir until well combined. Stir in additional water if needed until all flour is absorbed.
  3. Knead dough in a ball for 1 minute 
  4. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and cover in oil
  5. Cover bowl with damp cloth and let dough rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, roughly 30 minutes (depends on the humidity of the place you live)
  6. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F
  7. Deflate the dough and place on floured surface
  8. Knead dough briefly
  9. Roll the dough into a sheet to fill a lightly greased baking sheet
  10. Brush dough with olive oil 
  11. Place in oven and bake for ten to twenty minutes, depending on desired crispness
