Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water with honey, stirring to dissolve. Sprinkle active dry yeast on top and let sit for about 10 minutes until foamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour and salt. After the yeast mixture is foamy, combine these mixtures.
- Pour the foamy yeast mixture and olive oil into the flour mixture. Stir until a sticky dough forms and cover with a kitchen towel to rise until doubled, about 1 to 3 hours.
- While the dough rises, melt salted butter in a small saucepan. Add minced garlic and parsley, simmer for 3-5 minutes.
- Once the dough has doubled, gently fold in the garlic butter. Let the dough rest for another 15 minutes.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with olive oil. Transfer the dough into the pan and stretch it to fill the corners.
- Cover the pan with a towel and let it rise for 45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and create dimples in the dough. Drizzle olive oil, then bake for 18-22 minutes until golden.
- Remove focaccia from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes
Store focaccia wrapped in a towel at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. Slice and freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in a preheated oven to restore texture.
