09 -
2 cups confectioners’ sugar

2 to 4 tablespoons whole milk
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
In a small bowl, combine warm water and sugar, then sprinkle active dry yeast over the surface. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
02 -
In a stand mixer bowl, blend the yeast mixture with bread flour, all-purpose flour, and salt on low speed until a sticky dough forms.
03 -
Grease a large bowl with olive oil, transfer dough into it, cover with a towel, and allow to rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
04 -
Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with olive oil. Punch down the dough, place into pan, fold to coat with oil, cover loosely, and let rise for 1 hour.
05 -
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) while the dough completes its second rise.
06 -
After the second rise, poke deep holes into the dough and spoon raspberry preserves across the surface, allowing some to seep into the openings.
07 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and optionally add extra preserves on top.
08 -
Mix confectioners’ sugar with milk to desired consistency. Once focaccia cools slightly, spread glaze evenly over the top.
09 -
Cut into squares and serve fresh for optimal flavor and texture.
