My homemade focaccia is like a lightly crunchy cloud lightly coated in a garlicky and Italian seasoned oil. If you are a beginner or need a small batch of focaccia, this is recipe is for you.

My Husbands review: “super light on the inside, slightly crunchy on the outside and it has a garlicky pizza taste. I want to eat it all.” And he did indeed eat the whole thing.
