"This mini focaccia is a dream, especially since I made it in my BounceBox from U-Konserve. All the prep, baking, and storing done in one container? Yes please." - Sahar Elgamil
Ingredients:
- 1 cup or 125g All purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp or 3g salt
- 95g warm water
- 2g instant yeast
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp olive oil for proofing
- 2 Tbsp olive oil for dimpling
- Cherry tomatoes (optional)
- Rosemary (optional)
- Flaky salt (optional)
Directions:
- Microwave water in your mini BounceBox for 20 seconds
- Add in yeast and 1 tsp olive oil, then whisk vigorously
- In your large BounceBox, combine flour and salt
- Add in your yeast mixture and stir until it forms a hydrated dough
- Cover with the lid and press down once for a vented seal. Let rest for 10 minutes
- Stretch and pull the dough for about two minutes. Wetting your hand with water will help with this step
- Drizzle 1 Tbsp olive oil over the dough, place the lid back on, and let proof for 30 minutes
- After 30 minutes, your dough should have grown. Stretch and pull for another two minutes, then fold the edges of the dough underneath itself and place it smooth side up
- Drizzle 2 Tbsp olive oil over the dough, and begin pressing in with your fingers to dimple it
- Place any toppings you like on your focaccia. If you choose to do cherry tomato and rosemary, press the tomatoes in cut side up, and oil your rosemary so it doesn’t burn
- Top with flaky salt (optional), and bake at 425° for 20 minutes on the lowest rack of your oven
- Once crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, enjoy!
Tried 3 different times and all 3 turned out awful. Won’t rise, liquid mess… maybe the water and yeast are wrong because I’m trying to convert to Tbsp and tsp.
Just made today, followed recipe to the letter, and it didn’t turn out at all.
Dough didn’t stretch as in video, and after 20 minutes of baking, it’s a liquidy mess,
with the dough overflowing the container and is no where close to being cooked.
Fantastically wonderful! Made it in the microwave at work. Had to beat away the others who wanted a bite!
You need to please keep everything in ounces and cups! Grams do not help
Replaced rosemary & tomatoes with Buffalo feta & olives lovely combination
