Artichoke-Tomato Focaccia Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp active dry yeast
• 1 cup warm water
• 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
• 1 can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
• 1 medium tomato, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tsp dried oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and yeast. Gradually add in the warm water and 1/4 cup of olive oil, stirring until a dough forms.
2. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 5-10 minutes.
3. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a damp towel. Let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
4. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
5. Punch down the dough and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use your fingertips to press the dough out into a rectangle shape.
6. Drizzle the dough with olive oil. Top with chopped artichoke hearts, sliced tomato, minced garlic, oregano, and salt and pepper to taste.
7. Bake the focaccia for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
8. Allow the focaccia to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
