Description
A delightful mash-up of soft focaccia and sweet jam-filled pockets reminiscent of donuts, perfect for breakfast or a sweet snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- 3/4 cup warm milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup jam (your choice)
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and instant yeast. Whisk them together.
- Warm the milk until slightly warm (about 105–115°F / 40–46°C) to activate the yeast.
- Grease a bowl and a baking tray lightly with oil.
- Add the warm milk and olive oil to the dry mix, then stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in the greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Once the dough has risen, gently deflate it and flatten it into the greased baking tray.
- Use your fingertips to make small indentations across the surface and spoon small amounts of jam into each indentation.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until the focaccia is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
- Allow to cool slightly on a rack for about 10 minutes.
- Dust generously with powdered sugar just before serving and slice into squares or wedges.
Notes
Serve warm with coffee, tea, or milk. Can also be served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for dessert.
