Soft, golden focaccia muffins infused with roasted garlic and fresh rosemary. Perfect for snacking, sides, or savory brunches.

Ingredients

  • All-Purpose Flour: 2 cups
  • Warm Water: ¾ cup
  • Active Dry Yeast: 2¼ teaspoons
  • Sugar: 1 teaspoon
  • Salt: 1 teaspoon
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil: ¼ cup + extra for brushing
  • Roasted Garlic: 4 cloves, mashed
  • Fresh Rosemary: 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
  • Sea Salt Flakes: for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–7 minutes until frothy. Stir in mashed roasted garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and olive oil. Add flour gradually, mixing until a sticky dough forms.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Spoon the dough evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Let them rest uncovered for 15 minutes to puff slightly.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Brush tops generously with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt flakes.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Finishing Touches: Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy warm or room temperature, with soups, salads, or all on their own.

Notes

  • Use fresh rosemary for best flavor.
  • Roast garlic in advance for mellow sweetness.
  • Don’t overmix the dough to keep the texture soft.
  • Broil the tops for 1 minute for extra crispiness.
