Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.75 cups Warm Water (105-115°F)
  • 2 tsp Sugar (optional if using instant yeast)
  • 1 packet Active Dry Yeast
  • 2 cups Bread Flour (can substitute with all-purpose flour)
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp Salt
  • 6 tbsp Olive Oil (divided)
  • 1 jar Raspberry Preserves (can swap with other jams)
  • 2 cups Confectioners’ Sugar
  • 2-4 tbsp Whole Milk (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Warm 1.75 cups of water in a microwave until it reaches 105-115°F. Dissolve 2 tsp of sugar in the warm water, if using instant yeast.
  2. Sprinkle 1 packet of active dry yeast over the warm water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  3. Combine 2 cups of bread flour and 2 cups of all-purpose flour into a large mixing bowl. Add 2 tsp of salt to the flour mixture and whisk together.
  4. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the yeast mixture. Add 4 tbsp of olive oil into the well and stir until combined.
  5. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 60-120 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  7. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  8. Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a greased baking sheet. Spread the dough into a rectangle, about 1 inch thick.
  9. Make dimples across the surface of the dough using your fingers. Spread the raspberry preserves evenly across the dimples. Drizzle 2 tbsp of olive oil over the top of the dough.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. Allow the focaccia to cool slightly once removed from the oven. Whisk together 2 cups of confectioners’ sugar and 2-4 tbsp of whole milk until smooth. Drizzle the icing over the warm focaccia and let it set before slicing.
