Baking bread at home in today’s time is not for fun but for its necessity. I have always advocated baking at home and the reason is very simple. When you bake at home, you get complete control over the quality of ingredients and its portion.
Buying bread for the market is extremely effortless, and that is why most of the people still do that, compromising health aside.

Eggless Focaccia Bread
But have you ever thought about a bread that needs no efforts, no complicated processes to follow, no muscle powder for kneading and all it needs is a few basic ingredients and a little bit of your time? I am sure this sounds more fun than buying bread. Isn’t it?
And this is what we are going to talk about today. So today we are going to bake Quick No knead focaccia bread recipe. Focaccia is a popular Italian flatbread, which is also known as the cousin of Pizza. I also have a healthy whole-wheat pizza recipe that you might like to check.
There is something extra special about bringing warm homemade bread to the table. Even if you haven’t baked bread so far, you can still bake this no knead focaccia bread. The Whole Wheat lover can check my Whole Wheat Quick Easy Focaccia Bread recipe.

This focaccia recipe is a fuss-free recipe to go. No kneading, No stretching. All it takes is a bit of your time.
The dough comes together quickly and then is left to rise for a couple of hours while you finish your other works. Cast iron pan is best for achieving a super-crispy crust, but any other baking tin will also work.
Drizzle it with extra-virgin olive oil and top with fresh herbs if you have, then bake until golden.
So let’s get started!

No Knead Eggless Focaccia Bread Recipe
In a small bowl add 1/2 tsp dry yeast and 1/2 tsp sugar. Now add 60 ml lukewarm water. Stir it and let it rest until yeast froths.
Expert Tip: For bread baking, yeast plays an important role so make sure your yeast is active.
Now in a kneading bowl take 250 gm all-purpose flour. Add 1/2 tsp salt and activated yeast solution to it. Using a spoon or a wooden spatula start mixing everything.
Keep adding water in between to bind the dough. I have consumed around 120 ml of water to knead the dough.
At this stage add 1 tbsp olive oil. You can use melted butter as well but olive oil enhances the taste.
Now cover the prepared dough with cling wrap and let it rest on the kitchen counter for about 2 hrs.
After 2 hrs, punch the dough and transfer it to a greased 8 inches round pan. Apply some olive oil on hands and gently press the dough to shape it.
Garnish the dough with your choice of vegetables. Here I am using Cherry Tomatoes and Olives. Again cover the dough and let it rest until it doubles in volume.
Meanwhile preheat the oven at 200 °C. Now bake the shaped bread in a preheated oven at 200 °C for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, take the focaccia bread out from the oven. Immediately demold it.
Slice and serve the baked No knead focaccia bread with your choice of dip.

Dear Sonia,
I tried put the Foccasia bread with half of APF and half wheat flour, with your recipe, it turned out to be more than I had expected, my little one is very found of it. I tried to bake in the microwave convection, but dint give the desired Browning. I’m not sure if it’s got to do with my temperature setting. Kindly suggested.
Thank you,
Regards
Anusuya

Hello ma’am, this recipe doesnt require kneading of dought for 10 or more mins like we do incase of bread baking? We just havr to bind the dough and keep it for 1st proofing?
Everybody has a different recipe and must follow what they tell you about their recipe. For my recipe, yes you do not need 10 minutes of kneading.
Thanks
Sonia

Can we use wheat flour instead of all purpose flour??
You may try. But a simple replacement of flour will not always work. You will need to adjust your other ingredients as well. So experiment it.
Thanks
