Funny thing is when ever I order focaccia I always get a pizza base and so when I had seen this bread version. I knew I just had to try it and I now believe this should be sold instead of pizza bases 🤞🏼🫣🥰

Steps

1

Combine dry ingredients then add olive oil and massage in. Thereafter add your water and mix to form a dough.
2

Let dough rise for 30 minutes then stretch and pull then leave to rest and rise. Do this step 2-3 times.
3

Place in oil baking pan or dish. I would advise you do not use a baking dish unless you line it with baking parchment (mine got stuck to the bottom although the pan was greased with olive oil). Stretch out and leave to rise.
4

Drizzle with olive oil and crushed garlic. Using your fingers, push holes in. (Should have some beautiful airy closed bubbles).
5

Bake for 25 minutes or till golden brown. All done 😋
