Really good and easy bread. I did not have any parmesan cheese so I had to leave it out and it was still really good. A keeper. The recipe fails to tell you to activate the yeast.

This recipe was easy to follow and came out perfect the first time! I used regular active yeast and was sure to use very warm (120 degree) water. I used f2 cloves of fresh garlic instead of the garlic powder, dried rosemary and basil from my garden, and omitted the mozzarella since I had none on hand. The crust came out golden, and the bread was tender and flavorful. A perfect accompaniment for pasta tonight! This may wind up being my go-to for pizza crust. I will try doubling next time.

Some of the reviews for this recipe surprise me, such as the last one. My bread rose perfectly and was as far from a "hockey puck" as you can get. It was light, delicious, and flavorful bread, and it doesn't matter to me whether or not traditional focaccia has milk or water if the recipe bakes up well. I've made a number of different focaccia breads, my usual being Michael's focaccia from this site, and this was a slightly quicker, and still VERY yummy alternative, perfect for a Friday after work to serve my family with homemade soup! I followed this to the letter, except added fresh rosemary and sea salt to the top of the bread.

Exactly like a hockey puck. Flat, too many herbs, just not like a focaccia should be like. I'm totally surprised by the reviews because traditional focaccia usually has milk for the liquid.

I used Rapid Rise yeast so I could immediately shape the bread and let it rise only 1 time. I subbed fresh garlic instead of using garlic powder and used the herbs of my choice. Very quick and easy and the family loved it!

I made 2 for a Bday party and everyone loves it. I did double up on the dry ingredients and add parm cheese to the dry mix as well.

This is fast and tasty. I used italian seasoning in place of the herbs. YUM! I want to try pressing tomatoes in it next time I make it.

Fantastic, easy recipe for focaccia bread! Loved that it only took an hour from start to finish. Only downside is that the loaf only lasted a day!! Based on previous bread making experience and previous comments, I made sure that the water was warm, between 120 - 130 degrees Farenheit, when I added it to dry ingredients. As I was using Fleichmann's Quick Rise Yeast, I did not need to proof the yeast. As well, I omitted the cheese and instead brushed the top of the bread with olive oil and topped with rosemary and sea salt. Got great reviews from my roommates. Will definitely be making again!

absolutely incredible! i added more fresh rosemary and the aroma filled up the entire house. I made sandwiches with this bread for my vegetarian boyfriend. i filled the sandwich with roasted eggplant and zucchini, mushrooms sauteed in butter with a mayo and minced garlic mix on both sides of the bread. he told me this sandwich could be sold in a restaurant for ten dollars. now when he is craving the sandwich he simply asks for the "ten dollar" sandwich. enjoy!

I thought this bread was tasty. I made it twice, once according to directions, and the second time, letting it rise longer and using the hints from other people's reviews about proofing the yeast. I would say it was a little better with the longer rise, but not much different. I used it for the Grilled Mediterranean Vegetable Sandwich.

Absolutely wonderful! I have made this about a hundred times! I always get perfect results. It is also wonderful as a pizza crust (done in one hour!). I just use a large jellyroll pan and press it out to the sides. I bake it for 5 minutes and then I top it with pizza sauce, veggies and cheese.

Recipe worked well. See other's comments on making the bread rise. Don't knead too much either.

I just pulled this out of the oven and it tastes great! I mixed the sugar, water, and yeast together first. Then dumped everything else in the bread machine along with the yeast mixture after it was foamy. I let the machine do the kneading, only about 20 minutes on the dough cycle and then let it rise. I got a french bread looking loaf, which is what I wanted. I'm going to cut it horizontally and use it for grilled veggie sandwiches. I omitted the mozzarella because the sandwiches are going to have feta cheese on them. I also used fresh oregano and basil from my garden. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I will definitely make it again.

This is wonderful bread. I baked it in an 8X8 stoneware dish because I wanted the bread a little thicker for sandwiches. I can't have dairy, so I skipped out on the cheeses and it was still very tasty.
