Garlic Cheese Focaccia

1: In a bowl, combine warm water, honey (or sugar/agave), olive oil, and instant yeast. Allow the mixture to activate.

2: In a separate bowl, mix the bread flour and sea salt.

3: Gradually add the yeast mixture to the flour and mix until a dough forms.

4: Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let it rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

5: While the dough rises, prepare the garlic butter by simmering salted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, and parsley on low heat for 2 minutes. Set aside to cool.

6: Preheat the oven to 220C (430F) and prepare a metal tray lined with parchment and coated with olive oil.

7: Once the dough is ready, shape it and place it in the prepared tray. Bake for 15 minutes.

8: Remove from oven, add grated mozzarella on top, and bake again for 8-10 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.

9: Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan before serving.
