Looking for an alternative to garlic bread? Try this golden focaccia bread that's a big hit at our house. The dough is easy to whip up in the bread machine, then season with rosemary, garlic salt and Parmesan cheese. I serve it warm whenever we're having spaghetti or another Italian dish. -Kay King, Dyersville, Iowa
Ingredients:
� 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons water (70� to 80�)
� 3 tablespoons butter, softened
� 2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk powder
� 3 tablespoons sugar
� 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
� 3 cups bread flour
� 2-1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
�
� TOPPING:
� 2 tablespoons olive oil
� 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
� 2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary or 3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
� 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Directions:
1. In bread machine pan, place the first seven ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed).
2. When cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes. Knead for 1 minute. Press into a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Press dough 1/4 in. up the sides of pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 20-30 minutes or until sightly risen.
