Easy Homemade Rosemary Sun Dried Tomato Focaccia Bread

January 8, 2019 Filed Under: Breads

Homemade Focaccia Bread is quite simple to make. Here’s a sourdough version of this classic Italian flatbread topped with Parmesan cheese, fresh rosemary and sun dried tomatoes.

Like any bread recipe, the key to focaccia is the rising time. I went for a no knead overnight rising initially and then waited until the dough was a bit more than doubled in the second rise to give it the fluffy interior with lightly crispy outside.

To make the sourdough version, you obviously need sourdough starter. If you do not have any, ask a friend. Sourdough fans love to share. Otherwise you can make your own, but it takes days/weeks to develop that characteristic sourdough flavor.  Visit Sourdough Home to learn more about starting, feeding and storing sourdough.

Once you have sourdough starter you can make these delicious recipes as well:

Sourdough Waffle on a plate with shipped butter and jam on top
Sourdough Cranberry Cinnamon Rolls - sourdough cinnamon rolls studded with fresh or frozen cranberries.
Sourdough Soft Pretzel Bites
Sourdough Crepes are a very thin sourdough pancake, or a slightly tangy crepe depending on how you look at it. Very easy to make.
No Knead Caprese Artisan Bread

Or you can just use plain instant yeast as your leavener.
