Focaccia bread is one of my favorite breads to make at home. It’s easy and great for sandwiches, pizza dough or paired with soup or a salad. This is a quick version that skips the kneading step and quickly gets you to a delicious pan of tasty bread.
Garlicky, herby and delicious, Focaccia bread is soft, rich and chewy and perfect for snacking.
One of the best parts of this bread is the smell coming from the oven while it’s baking. The rosemary, the garlic, the shallot, you won’t be able to keep your hands off it while it cools!
It might sound like a lot of oil, but it helps to keep the bread from sticking to the pan and gives it great flavor and texture.
If your pan tends to stick, oil the pan, add a layer of parchment paper and oil the parchment to make sure the bread won’t even have a chance to stick.

- Prep Time: 10 mins
- Cook Time: 30 mins
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 12 Servings 1x
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- 1/2 shallot, thinly sliced
- 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
- Pinch coarse Kosher salt
Instructions
- Using 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, generously grease the bottom of a 9″ x 13″ baking sheet or baking pan.
- In a large bowl, using a wooden spoon, stir together remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and all remaining ingredients until well blended, about 60 seconds. Scoop the sticky batter into the prepared pan, cover, and let it rise at room temperature for 60 minutes, or until it’s puffy.
