Description
A delightful twist on traditional Italian focaccia, infused with raspberry jam and fresh raspberries for a sweet bakery-style treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup raspberry jam
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Prepare the dough by combining warm water, instant yeast, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Mix the dry ingredients by whisking together all-purpose flour and salt in another bowl.
- Form the dough by pouring the flour mixture into the yeast mixture, adding 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir until shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 7-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Let it rise by placing the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, covering with a damp cloth, and letting it rise for about 1 hour until doubled in size.
- Shape the focaccia by punching down the dough and transferring it to a well-oiled baking sheet, spreading it with fingers to create dimples.
- Add raspberry jam by spreading a layer over the dough and pressing fresh raspberries into it.
- Cover and let it rise for another 30 minutes while preheating the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Bake the focaccia by drizzling with remaining olive oil, sprinkling with salt, and baking for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool and serve by letting it sit on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
