Ingredients
Units
Scale
For the Focaccia Dough:
- 80 – 100 grams Active Sourdough Starter
- 10 grams Salt
- 430 grams Warm Water
- 520 grams All Purpose Flour
- 6 tbsp. Olive Oil
For Topping:
- Fresh Rosemary
- Flaky Sea Salt
- Hot Honey (Optional)
Instructions
- In a large baking pan (approx. 9×13″), combine the flour, active sourdough starter, salt, and water. Mix until all flour is absorbed. Cover and rest in a warm environment for 30 minutes.
- Imagine the dough divided into 4 corners. Gently scoop from the bottom and lift up one corner without the dough breaking as high as it’ll go, then fold toward the center of the dough. Rotate the bowl to the next “corner” and repeat. Repeat for a total of 10 times.
- Cover and rest the dough in a warm environment for 4-12 hours, until doubled in volume.
- If baking same day:
- Generously drizzle a nonstick muffin tin with olive oil. Pinch off large portions (about 1/4 cup) of the dough to divide among the muffin cups.
- Let rest in a warm environment 2-3 hours, until doubled in volume.
- Preheat oven to 430F.
- Drizzle once more with olive oil, then use your fingers to create dimples in each focaccia muffin. Add the fresh rosemary leaves and flaky sea salt.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown on top.
- If baking next day:
- Cover the baking dish and place in the fridge overnight.
- The next morning, generously drizzle a nonstick muffin tin with olive oil. Pinch off large portions (about 1/4 cup) of the dough to divide among the muffin cups.
- Let rest in a warm environment 2-3 hours, until doubled in volume. On hot days, this may only take 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 430F.
- Drizzle once more with olive oil, then use your fingers to create dimples in each focaccia muffin. Add the fresh rosemary leaves and flaky sea salt.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown on top.
(Optional) Drizzle the dough with 1-2 tablespoons olive oil.
Notes
- For a touch of sweetness, drizzle the baked muffins with hot honey before serving.
