Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 cups (281g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon (9g) instant yeast
- 1 cup (237ml) warm water
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (59ml) olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 4 tablespoons (57g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- Icing: 4 ounces cream cheese, softened, 1 1/2 cups (180g) powdered sugar, 2-4 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and yeast.
- Add warm water, granulated sugar, and olive oil. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Punch down dough and transfer to the prepared pan. Gently stretch and press the dough to fill the pan.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
- Evenly spread the cinnamon sugar mixture over the dough.
- Use your fingers to create indentations all over the dough. Drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While focaccia is baking, prepare the icing. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
- Gradually add powdered sugar, alternating with milk, until desired consistency is reached.
- Let focaccia cool slightly before drizzling with icing.
- Slice and serve warm.
Notes
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less sugar.
- Add nuts or dried fruit to the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
