  • ½ cup (30 g) oat fiber
  • 1 tablespoon (15 g) double acting baking powder (zero carbs)
  • ¼ cup (30 g) psyllium husks
  • 1 teaspoon (6 g) Celtic or Himalayan salt
  • 1 tablespoon (9 g) SAF dried yeast
  • 1 teaspoon (4 g) sugar

Garnishes:

  • ¼ cup (60 ml) extra light olive oil
  • 1 Roma tomato, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon (7 g) Italian mixed seasonings
  • 1 teaspoon (6 g) Celtic or Himalayan salt
  • ¼ cup (25 g) Parmigiano Reggiano, freshly grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F/180°C.
  2. Prepare the water: Microwave spring water for 30 seconds until slightly warm (about 73-77°F). Add the warm water to your mixing bowl.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: Add living starter to the bowl of your stand mixer. Add remaining wet ingredients and stir to combine.
  4. Add dry ingredients to the bowl of your stand mixer.
  5. Initial mixing: Using a beater hook, mix dough on low for one minute to incorporate all ingredients. Gradually increase speed and continue mixing.
  6. Develop the gluten: Increase to higher speed and mix dough for 4-5 minutes. This activates the gluten and creates that perfect keto bread texture.
  7. Prepare your pan: Spray a 14-inch oven-proof non-stick pan with avocado or olive oil spray.
  8. Transfer dough to the prepared pan.
  9. Shape the focaccia: Using your fingers, press dough out to the perimeter of the pan.
  10. First rise: Cover and let sit for 30-60 minutes in a warm spot.
  11. Create dimples: Using your fingers, press characteristic dimples into the dough.
  12. Add toppings: Lay tomato slices on the dough, sprinkle with Italian seasonings, and drizzle generously with olive oil.
  13. Bake: Place in oven and bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown.
  14. Initial cooling: Remove focaccia from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
  15. Crisp the bottom: Remove focaccia from pan and return directly to oven rack to crisp the exterior for a few minutes.
  16. Final touch: Remove from oven and while still hot, grate Parmigiano Reggiano generously over the top.
  17. Serve: Slice into 12 pieces and enjoy warm!
