Meet my all-time favorite focaccia bread recipe. ♡ It was actually one of the very first bread recipes that I learned to make years ago, and still continues to be a fave because it is so simple to make. The preparation was a snap, but the final product, even with the dimpling and ample olive oil, had a texture a lot more like white sandwich bread than it did focaccia. Focaccia is a soft and fluffy flat bread made with olive oil and various toppings. It originated in Genoa, Italy, and has since become one of the most popular breads and Italian recipes in the world. You can eat Focaccia bread any time of the day, with coffee for breakfast, with a glass of wine during meal time, or as a snack or appetizer throughout the day.
