One of the BEST Pantry Focaccia Bread Recipes

This homemade vegan focaccia recipe is a fantastic pantry-staple meal!  It uses almost all ingredients you would have in your dry pantry or cupboards.  You probably already have a lot of these ingredients on hand already. Keeping a well-stocked pantry makes it easy to come up with delicious and healthy meals using a few staples you can rotate.  I made a list of my Top 125 Plant-Based Pantry Staples that always keep on hand. And you can check out all my favorite pantry staple recipes on TheHerbeevore.com here.  By stocking up on healthy whole ingredients you can cook delicious recipes without a trip to the store!

What’s In This Sheet Pan Rosemary Focaccia Bread Recipe?

• Dried Rosemary: Which I find has a more subtle flavor than the fresh rosemary. I crushed mine in a mortar and pestle, but you can use the larger dried leaves of rosemary if you’d like.
• Active Dry Yeast: I stocked up on this active yeast which I always find plenty of uses for in my kitchen!  Active dry yeast is great for overnight breads and this easy quick bread recipe too!
• Granulated Sugar: I like this organic sugar for my recipes, it has a really nice texture in these cookies, I’d recommend Anthony’s organic sugar for baking.
• All Purpose Flour: I normally use King Arthur organic all purpose flour for all my baking recipes, I love the consistency and texture of the crumb this flour produces. If you are gluten free, then a gluten free flour would be a nice substitute in this dish.
• Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity Zoe olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry.  For the quality of oil you get, it’s an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
• Pink Himalayan Sea Salt: I like to use a pink Himalayan Sea Salt in my kitchen, which has more natural minerals than plain processed table salt.  It’s fairly inexpensive, so I’d recommend this salt if you’re looking for an easy way to level up your spice pantry.

How Do I Make this Easy Vegan Focaccia Bread Recipe?

1. In a bowl, mix the warm water, active yeast, and sugar and allow the mixture to dissolve for about 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add the flour, olive oil, salt and rosemary. Stir well with a wooden spoon to combine.
3. Add the water and yeast to the flour little by little, stirring every 1/2 cup or so. Dough should be shaggy when all ingredients are mixed together.
4. Place plastic wrap over dough and cover for about 2 hours, allowing the dough to rise in a warm space.
5. Once risen, knead dough for about 10 minutes into a ball. Cover the ball with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.
6. After refrigerating, unwrap dough and place in a large greases bowl. Allow to rise one last time for about 2 hours.
7. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. In a 13×9 sheet pan, pour in 2 tablespoons of oilve oil. Add the dough, and gentry knead it out so it fills the sheetpan. Allow to sit for about 15 minutes. Use your fingers to poke holes in the dough, go all the way to the sheetpan. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil on top. Sprinkle top with a touch of extra salt and rosemary.
