Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh rosemary sprigs
  • Salt flakes, for sprinkling
  • Optional toppings: sliced tomatoes, olives, caramelized onions

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sourdough discard, flour, instant yeast, salt, warm water, and 2 tbsp olive oil. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
  2. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise for 1 to 1.5 hours until it doubles in size.
  3. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Lightly oil a baking sheet or pizza pan.
  4. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and gently press it out evenly to form a focaccia base, about 1/2-inch thick.
  5. Drizzle olive oil over the dough and use your fingers to create dimples all over the surface.
  6. Spread tomato sauce evenly over the focaccia, then sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
  7. Add rosemary sprigs and your choice of optional toppings.
  8. Sprinkle salt flakes on top and drizzle a little more olive oil.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden and crispy and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
  10. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, slice, and serve warm.

Notes

For extra flavor, brush the baked focaccia pizza with garlic-infused olive oil before serving.
