Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Tomato Focaccia Rolls:
1. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar.
2. Add the Wet Ingredients: Slowly pour in the warm water and olive oil. Stir with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
3. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
5. Prepare Toppings: While the dough rises, prepare your toppings. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and chop the rosemary.
6. Shape the Rolls: After the dough has risen, punch it down to release air. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball.
7. Second Rise: Place the rolls on a greased baking sheet, cover with a towel, and let them rest for another 30 minutes.
8. Preheat the Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
9. Add Toppings: Gently flatten each roll and place the halved tomatoes on top. Sprinkle with rosemary, garlic powder, and coarse sea salt. Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the tops.
10. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown.
11. Cool: Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
