The first time I made this recipe, I found it to be a little bland, but very simple, and knew it would be easy to modify. This time, I added some garlic powder, a handful of mozzarella cheese, some parmesan, some dried onions, and a touch of parsley. But instead of rolling it out, I made individual rolls. Baked it for about 10 minutes, at a touch lower temperature, and my family went crazy!!

This recipe is awesome! I am a beginner at baking breads & this easy bread was soft from the inside & crusty on the top. I thought it would taste better if I added some salt into the dough other than topping with salt. Can I do that? Thanks for the super easy recipe!

PERFECT!!! Season however you want. I used a lot of ground sage and a little basil. So good. Double the recipe if you will be serving this for more than 4 or 6 guests. In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup olive oil, ground pepper, salt, basil to taste, and dip your bread in this as you eat it. You'd think you're at a restaraunt!

I make this bread about 5 times a week... it's great with a salad and soup, and really dresses up just about any meal. It's absurdly easy and utterly delicious. I add a tsp of white sugar to the flour, and preheat the oven a couple minutes only before raising the dough, then turn it off and put the dough in to bake into a cold oven. I also use coarse salt to sprinkle and extra virgin olive oil ... it's really tasty. You can add seasonings, shredded cheeses, black olives, etc to vary.

I made this in my food processor and it was very easy, tasty, and light. I also let it rise after shaping. Excellent! It makes a wonderful bread for dipping in flavored oils.

This really is an easy Focaccia recipe. I have made it before and just couldn't find my recipe. I also added about a tablespoon of olive oil to my dough, because I thought it was in my regular recipe. I place rosemary and parm. cheese on top of mine when I baked. To the reviewer that stated it was not that easy to make, I don't think it was any more difficult than most bread recipes. However, I make all of my bread with a mixer and dough hook. Just don't over mix or it will be tough.

This recipe was very easy and it was delicious. I added alittle oil in the flour mixture and it came out better than my pizza dough. I make pizza dough every week and make bread often, but I have never tasted anything like this. Try it and you will like it. thanks alot Sam!!

I have made this recipe numerous times. Delicious! I have mixed in italian seasoning and garlic powder in the flour mixture for some extra flavor. I've even mixed olives with the dough and put cheese and veggies on top. Will continue to make this time and time again.
