Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 3/4 cups warm water about 110°F
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 cup Herbs De Provence Infused Olive Oil Blend
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for the pan
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Equipment

  • 1 Large mixing bowl For mixing and rising the dough
  • 1 set Measuring cups and spoons For accurate ingredient portions
  • 1 9x13-inch baking pan Oiled well for baking
  • 1 Kitchen towel or plastic wrap To cover the dough during rising
  • 1 Oven Preheated to 425°F
  • 1 Cooling rack For brief cooling before serving

Method
 

Instructions
  1. 1. In a large bowl, stir together the warm water, honey, and yeast. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. 2. Add the flour, fine sea salt, 1/4 cup Herbs De Provence Infused Olive Oil Blend, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. 3. Knead by hand or with a dough hook for 6 to 8 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  4. 4. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until doubled in size.
  5. 5. Generously oil a 9x13-inch baking pan. Press the dough into the pan, stretching it to the corners. If it springs back, let it rest for 10 minutes and stretch again.
  6. 6. Cover loosely and let the dough rise again for 30 to 40 minutes until puffy.
  7. 7. Heat the oven to 425°F. Drizzle the top with a little olive oil, then dimple the dough deeply with oiled fingertips.
  8. 8. Sprinkle the rosemary, thyme, flaky sea salt, and black pepper over the surface.
  9. 9. Bake for 22 to 28 minutes until the top is golden brown and the edges are crisp.
  10. 10. Cool for 10 minutes, then cut into squares or strips and serve warm.

Notes

For the best texture, do not rush the rise time. The dough should feel airy before it goes into the oven, and a generous coat of olive oil in the pan helps the bottom and edges bake up beautifully crisp.
