Rustic Olive Oil & Rosemary Focaccia Bread

A Golden, Crispy Focaccia Infused with Extra Virgin Olive Oil

This Rustic Olive Oil & Rosemary Focaccia Bread is baked to perfection with Stock Family Orchard’s Coratina Extra Virgin Olive Oil, giving it a bold, slightly peppery finish. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and infused with fragrant rosemary, this focaccia is perfect for dipping, sandwiches, or as a side to your favorite meal.

Ingredients:

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
1 ½ tsp sea salt
1 ¼ cups warm water
¼ cup Stock Family Orchard Coratina Extra Virgin Olive Oil (plus more for drizzling)
2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tsp flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Stir in flour, salt, and olive oil, then mix until a soft dough forms.

Step 2: Knead & Rise

Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.

Step 3: Shape & Second Rise

Press the dough into a greased baking pan, creating dimples with your fingers. Drizzle with more Coratina olive oil, sprinkle with rosemary and flaky sea salt, then let rise for another 30 minutes.
