Focaccia Recipe
This rustic focaccia recipe is inspired by traditional Italian schiacciata and made with a blend of Wild Hive All Purpose Flour, Whole Wheat Bread Flour, and Spelt. The result is a deeply flavorful, olive oil-rich flatbread with a crisp golden crust and a soft, airy interior.
By combining freshly milled flours, this focaccia delivers both structure and character — a balance of strength, tenderness, and subtle nuttiness that you simply can’t get from standard commercial flour.

Why This Recipe Works
Focaccia relies on high hydration and olive oil to create its signature open crumb and tender texture. The blend of flours in this recipe enhances both structure and flavor:
All Purpose Flour provides balanced strength and softness
Whole Wheat Bread Flour adds protein and depth
Spelt helps create an effervescent dough and a mild, nutty flavor
Olive oil promotes a crisp exterior and tender crumb
The result is a beautifully dimpled focaccia with excellent rise, rich aroma, and a satisfying chew.

About the Flours
