What can be better than warm salty, herby Focaccia? THIS focaccia dipped in Elderberry Balsamic!
Ingredients
Focaccia
-
1.5 cups warm (110degree) water
-
1 Tbsp white sugar
-
1 packet yeast
-
3.5 cups flour
-
1 tsp salt
-
2 Tbsp olive oil (to coat pan)
-
2 Tbsp olive oil (to brush over dough before cooking)
-
halved cherry tomatoes, red onions sliced, rosemary, sage, oregano to taste
Balsamic Dip
Directions
Heat 1 ½ cup water to 110 degrees, which takes about 80 seconds in our microwave
- Add 1 tablespoon white sugar and 1 tablespoon yeast. Gently stir and allow to activate for ten minutes.
- Using a stand mixer with a dough hook, mix in 3 ½ cup flour, then add 1 teaspoon salt
Coat your baking container (we used a pyrex dish) with 2 tablespoons olive oil, then dump the wet dough into the container and cover for 1 hour to let it rise.
After an hour, poke the dough with your finger to make holes all over it, then brush on 2 tablespoons olive oil and add all of your toppings. If you let it rise another half hour, it’ll get even fluffier!
- Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes
- Once you take it out of the oven, give your focaccia about 10-20 minutes to rest in its container before digging in.
- Prepare your olive oil and Elderberry Balsamic dip and add any additional grated cheese, spices or herbs. So far, this recipe is fully plant-based, but elderberry balsamic is also delicious with grated parmesan.
