Soft, fluffy focaccia muffins infused with garlic and rosemary, offering all the savory flavor of traditional focaccia in a convenient, handheld form.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast (1 packet)
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Sea salt flakes (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Stir in the yeast mixture and olive oil until a sticky dough forms.
  3. Fold in chopped rosemary and minced garlic.
  4. Cover and let dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Grease a muffin tin with olive oil. Scoop dough into muffin cups, filling halfway.
  6. Let rise again in the tin for 20–30 minutes.
  7. Drizzle tops with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt flakes and extra rosemary if desired.
  8. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 18–20 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. Cool slightly and serve warm.

Notes

  • Top with grated Parmesan or mozzarella for a cheesy variation.
  • Swap rosemary with thyme or Italian seasoning for different flavors.
  • Mix in sun-dried tomatoes or olives for a Mediterranean twist.
  • Add red pepper flakes to the dough for a spicy version.
  • Brush with olive oil before serving to refresh leftovers.
