Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl, place the flour and create a well in the center. Crumble the yeast into the well and add the sugar. Pour in the warm water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, allowing the yeast to activate.
2
Once the yeast has proofed, add the olive oil and salt. Mix well, then knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
3
Shape the dough into a ball, return it to the bowl, cover, and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
4
When the dough has risen, roll it out to a thickness of about 2-3 cm. Place it in a baking sheet greased with olive oil.
5
Slice the black olives. Finely chop the fresh rosemary.
6
Arrange the black olives on the dough, then sprinkle with fresh rosemary. Gently press the dough with your fingers to create small dimples.
7
Preheat your oven to 430°F (220°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the focaccia is golden brown and crispy.
8
After baking, let it cool for 10 minutes, then slice and serve.
