Ingredients
- 1 1/4 c. water
- 1 tsp. granulated sugar
- 1 (0.25-oz.) packet (or 2 ¼ tsp.) active dry yeast
- 3 1/4 all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
- 2 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil “divided”
- 2 tbsp. fresh rosemary leaves
- Flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Combine the yeast, sugar, and warm water in a bowl. Let sit for about 15 minutes until frothy.
- In a large bowl add the flour, salt, and 2 tbsp of olive oil
- Pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture until a dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for about 5 minutes. The dough should become elastic and smooth
- Place the dough into another large bowl with 2 tbsp of olive oil and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for about 1 hour until it has doubled in size
- Preheat the oven to 400F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking sheet with 2 tbsp olive oil
- Using your hand, lightly punch the center of the dough to deflate it. Use your fingers to stretch the dough out to the edges of the greased baking sheet and make indentations all over using your fingers
- Drizzle the dough with 2 more tbsp of olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary and flaky sea salt
- Bake for 25 minutes or until golden and puffed up
