Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (plus extra for drizzling)
- 1 ¾ cups warm water (about 110°F/43°C)
- Sea salt flakes (for topping)
- Fresh herbs (rosemary or thyme, optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, and salt. Gradually add warm water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, mixing until just combined.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean towel and let it rise at room temperature for 12-18 hours until bubbly and doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously coat a baking sheet with olive oil.
- Punch down the dough gently to release air bubbles. Transfer to the prepared pan and spread evenly, creating dimples on the surface.
- Drizzle additional olive oil over the top and sprinkle with sea salt flakes and fresh herbs if desired.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
