Whisk together flour, salt, and instant yeast. Add the water. Mix until the liquid is absorbed and a sticky dough ball forms. Rub the surface of the dough with the SIMPLi Olive Oil Blend. Cover with a tea towel or plastic wrap and proof in the refrigerator overnight.
Line a 9x13” pan with SIMPLi Olive Oil Blend and parchment paper. Pour in a tablespoon of SIMPLi Olive Oil Blend.
Remove the dough from the fridge and deflate it by using a fork to pull the dough towards the center of the bowl. Place the dough bowl in the pan and roll it in the olive oil. Allow to rest at room temperature, uncovered, for 3 - 4 hours.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Pour a tablespoon of the SIMPLi Olive Oil Blend over the dough. Using your fingers, dimple the dough and stretch it to fill the pan. Sprinkle SIMPLi Peruvian Spice Salt Blend evenly over the top of the dough, as well as any other toppings you may like.
Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve with a bowl of SIMPLi Extra Virgin Olive Oil for dipping.

With its soft interior and crisp crust, focaccia is a versatile bread that can be topped with many ingredients – fresh herbs and olives to cheeses, seeds, and sun-dried tomatoes. We teamed up with recipe developer Lauren Hodgen to give this classic Italian bread a unique twist with our Peruvian Spice Salt Blend, adding a layer of vibrant, spiced flavor, as well as to showcase the necessity of having the right olive oil for baking and finishing.

SIMPLi Olive Oil Blend is perfect for cooking at higher temperatures due to its balanced flavor profile and higher smoke point, which ensures that your focaccia develops a perfect crust without any burnt notes. Once the focaccia is out of the oven, it’s time to finish off with a drizzle of SIMPLi Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This cold-pressed oil has a robust, rich flavor that adds a luxurious finish, perfect for both topping and dipping.

The crowning touch to this focaccia is our Peruvian Spice Salt Blend. Harvested from the Maras Salt Mines in the Andes Mountains of Peru, our spice salt blend not only enhances the natural flavors of the bread, but also brings a distinctive flair with a hint of smokiness and earthy undertones.

A fusion of Mediterranean and Peruvian flavors, this spiced salt focaccia recipe is the perfect addition to your fall recipe rotation. Whether you’re a seasoned baker or trying your hand at bread-making for the first time, this focaccia is sure to impress with its simplicity, versatility, and exceptional taste thanks to quality ingredients!
