  • Total Time
    Prep: 40 min. + rising Bake: 20 min.
  • Makes
    3 loaves

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1-1/2 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 to 4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons small fresh sage leaves or 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Seasoned olive oil or additional olive oil, optional

Directions

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. Add sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. Add 4 tablespoons oil, salt, 2 cups flour and remaining water. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  • Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down. Divide into three portions. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Shape each portion into an 8-in. circle; place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make several 1/4-in. indentations in each loaf.
  • Brush with remaining oil. Sprinkle with green onions, rosemary, sage and oregano. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks. Serve with olive oil for dipping if desired.

    I was really pleased with the way the focaccia turned out. It was fairly simple to make and tasted great. I didn't have green onions, but it tasted great anyway!
