Steps
Start by mixing in a bowl the all-purpose flour, water, milk, sunflower oil, and a teaspoon of salt. Mix and finally add a packet of instant yeast for savory preparations.
Next, take half of the dough and spread it directly in the baking pan with your hands, without a rolling pin. Spread it well to cover the entire surface, then evenly arrange the slices of bacon and smoked scamorza cheese on top.
Now, cover everything with the remaining half of the dough, ensuring to seal the edges well. Bake it at 350°F, in a static oven, for about 35/40 minutes, until the focaccia is golden brown.
The final result will be a soft focaccia with a heart of savory bacon and creamy scamorza cheese.
It’s a perfect option when you’re short on time but desire something delicious for dinner.
I hope you love it as much as I did from the first bite! Enjoy your meal!
