Focaccia is an Italian flatbread that is traditionally made with a simple dough of flour, water, yeast, and olive oil. It is often topped with herbs, cheese, and vegetables, and can be served as an appetizer, side dish, or main course. This recipe uses a bread machine to make the dough, which makes it easy to prepare. The focaccia is then baked in the oven until golden brown and crispy. This recipe also includes instructions for making three different toppings: a classic herb and cheese topping, a roasted vegetable topping, and a prosciutto and arugula topping. With so many options to choose from, there's sure to be a focaccia recipe that everyone will enjoy.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

Ingredients

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water, plus
3 tablespoons lukewarm water
5 tablespoons oil (I like safflower)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon bread machine yeast
2 teaspoons oregano
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons garlic powder (optional)
4 tablespoons parmesan cheese
diced green onion
diced tomato
sliced black olives
sliced mushrooms
sliced green pepper
diced jalapeno pepper
cooked crumbled bacon
grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

Dough: Put the 1 1/2 cup water in the bread machine.
Add the other ingredients in this order: sugar, salt, oil, flour, yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano and black pepper.
Place bread machine on dough setting and start.
Note the amount of time your bread machine will take and set another timer for this amount (or do it manually, I use the timer on my microwave for for this).
As soon as the dough forms a ball (several minutes) add the 3 tbsp lukewarm water.
This amount of flour is more than most bread machines can handle, so check every 10 minutes when it is not actively mixing.
If it's getting too high, just stop the dough cycle and restart it (this is why the other timer is needed).
At the end of the time (on my machine it is 130 minutes) turn off the bread machine and remove the dough.
Grease a large pizza pan (or a large rectangular cookie sheet with sides, or 2 small pizza pans) and turn the dough out on it (I usually put a bit of oil or cooking spray on my hands so It doesn't stick to me).
Spread the dough evenly on the pan, making it higher on the edges of the pan for a crust.
Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until double.
About 15-20 minutes.
Toppings: Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder.
Add as many optional toppings as you wish (invent some if you wish).
Sprinkle with parmesan.
Bake until golden about 15-20 minutes at 350°F.

FOCACCIA (USING BREAD MACHINE FOR THE DOUGH)

Focaccia (Using Bread Machine for the Dough) image

This bread is SO appealing and very versatile too! We often have it in the summertime quartered and sliced horizontally and filled with barbecued chicken thighs, lettuce, sliced red onions, tomatoes and avocado and some Paul Newman's Own Ranch Dressing! Simply divine!! The preparation time I have given does not include the time it takes for the Bread Machine to make the dough or the time it takes for the dough to rise.

Time 15m

Yield 1 loaf of Italian Flat Bread, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 teaspoons dried yeast
3 cups bread flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon rosemary (dried)
1 teaspoon oregano (dried)
1 tablespoon oil
1 1/2 cups water

Steps:

Place all of the above ingredients, accurately measured and in the order I have listed them, in the Bread Machine.
Select the 'dough' cycle.
When the cycle is complete, take the dough out of the Bread Machine, and proceed with the following steps: On a lightly floured surface, gently knead the dough for about 10 minutes.
(you may need to add extra flour during this time) Place the 'Focaccia' dough in a well grease bowl, cover and leave to rise in a warm (and draught free) place for about 1/2 an hour.
Then, knead the dough lightly (in the bowl) for about 1 minute.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangular shape (about 20 cm x 30 cm)
Place on a well greased baking tray (or sponge roll tin) and leave to rise again, in a warm place, this time for about 1 hour (or until it has doubled in it's original size) Now pour and smooth over with your fingers, 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
'Poke' the dough with 2 fingers at intervals over the surface, and sprinkle liberally with rock salt or equal measurements of olive oil and Basil pesto mixed together with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese, top with chopped up sun-dried tomatoes and sliced black olives!
YUM!
Bake at 225°C for about 15 minutes or until golden brown!

Tips:

For a crispier crust, brush the top of the focaccia with olive oil before baking.
To make the focaccia even more flavorful, add some herbs, such as rosemary, thyme, or oregano, to the dough before baking.
If you don't have a bread machine, you can also make this focaccia by hand. Simply mix the ingredients together in a large bowl, then knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and let it rise for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size. Bake the focaccia at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.
Focaccia is best served warm, but it can also be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Baked bread machine focaccia with the works is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion.
