Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 2 teaspoons of instant yeast, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Give it a good mix.

Add Some Twist

Now it's time to give your Focaccia Bread a twist! Add 2 tablespoons of your favorite dried herbs, such as rosemary, thyme, or oregano. You can also add some minced garlic or grated cheese if you're feeling adventurous. Mix everything together.

Knead and Let It Rise

On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Shape and Top It

Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down and transfer it to a greased baking pan. Pat it into a rectangular shape, about 1 inch thick. Now comes the fun part! Use your fingers to create dimples all over the dough. Drizzle some olive oil on top, sprinkle with sea salt, and add any additional toppings you desire, like cherry tomatoes or olives.
