Quick Focaccia – Soft and Full of Air Pockets

Hi everyone! I absolutely love focaccia, especially the soft, airy kind with lots of holes. But what usually stops me from making it is the long rising time—sometimes you just crave focaccia at 5 PM and end up ordering pizza instead! Finally, I found a super simple, super quick recipe that doesn’t require any kneading. All you need is a spoon and a bowl, with just three hours of rising and 20 minutes of baking! I was honestly a bit skeptical since this was the only recipe I found that didn’t call for a stand mixer, strategic ingredient additions at certain temperatures, or lots of dough work to get the right texture. But I decided to try it, and I was really surprised! My whole family and I loved it. Now, I can make delicious focaccia whenever I want!

Steps

  1. 1

    Start by mixing the flour and salt together in a bowl. In another bowl, pour in the water and dissolve the yeast. Add the flour and salt mixture to the water and stir with a spoon until combined. Grease a bowl with olive oil and transfer the dough into it. Let it rise for about 3–4 hours, folding the dough every 30 minutes by lifting one side and folding it over to the opposite side.

  2. 2

    For the last fold, gently turn the dough out onto an oiled baking pan and let it rest for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Gently stretch the dough with your fingers, being careful not to deflate it too much. Add your desired toppings and let it rise for another 20 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, then bake in a preheated oven at 465°F (240°C) for about 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    When it’s golden brown, it’s ready. Let it cool for a few minutes, then cut and serve as you like—on its own or as a side.

Amo cucinare qualsiasi pietanza, mi piace creare e sperimentare, a dire il vero ho fatto grandi casini in passato.. ma l'esperienza premia e adesso i risultati mi sorprendono sempre e, cosa che mi fa più piacere, sorprendono gli altri. Cucino per me e per la mia famiglia piatti leggeri, light.. ma non ci facciamo mancare qualche strappo alla regola.. magari il sabato sera o invitando qualche amico.. soprattutto parlando di dolci, che adoriamo fare e soprattutto mangiare 😋😋😋😋😋.. se vi fa piacere seguitemi nella mia cucina e divertiamoci insieme 👩🏻‍🍳🤩😍❤💙❤🌻!
