Description
A fluffy and golden gluten-free focaccia bread, perfect for any meal or as a delightful snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups gluten-free flour blend
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (divided)
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme (chopped)
- Optional toppings: olives, sun-dried tomatoes, sautéed mushrooms
Instructions
- Prepare the yeast: In a bowl, mix warm water with yeast, allowing it to sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Combine dry ingredients: In another large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour blend, salt, and half of the olive oil.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually stir the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients until a thick batter forms.
- Let it rise: Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rest in a warm spot for approximately 30-40 minutes.
- Add flavors: Once the dough has risen, transfer it to an oiled baking dish, dimple the surface, drizzle with remaining olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt and herbs.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden-brown and crispy.
- Cool and serve: Allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm with olive oil or enjoy on its own!
Notes
Feel free to substitute gluten-free flour with chickpea or oat flour. Allow the dough to rest for best results.
