Artificial Food Coloring Free Classic Focaccia

Few breads are as satisfying to pull from the oven as a golden, dimpled focaccia — crispy on the outside, pillowy and chewy within, and fragrant with olive oil and fresh rosemary. Every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free from synthetic dyes, which can be surprisingly tricky to avoid in packaged breads and store-bought flatbreads that sometimes use coloring agents to achieve that perfect golden hue. This recipe keeps things beautifully simple: flour, yeast, water, salt, olive oil, and a handful of fresh rosemary are all you need. The double rise is what gives the crumb its open, airy texture, and the generous coating of olive oil in the pan creates that irresistible crispy bottom crust. Pressing the dimples deep before baking isn't just satisfying — it helps the flaky sea salt and rosemary nestle in and infuse every bite. Whether you serve it alongside soup, tear it apart at the table, or eat it warm with nothing at all, this is the kind of bread that disappears fast.
