Cheesy Focaccia Variations
You can add other veggies to the focaccia: sauteed mushrooms, roasted bell peppers, or caramelized onions.
If you want to add meat, use cooked ground beef, crispy bacon, or shredded rotisserie chicken.
Feel free to add fresh herbs like basil, oregano, cilantro, or parsley.
The cheddar cheese can be substituted with mozzarella, feta, or Swiss cheese.
Tips
Make the recipe gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour blend.
For a stretchy cheese, use mozzarella instead of cheddar.
If you want to make smaller breads, you can do so by diving the dough into smaller pieces.
A heavy-bottomed pan (like cast iron) will work best for this recipe as it retains heat well. This is necessary for the thick flatbreads to be cooked thoroughly.
The thickness of the buns determines the texture! Thinner buns will be crispier, while thicker buns will be slightly chewier and fluffier.
Short on time and need to cook the potatoes fast? Cook them in an instant pot. For medium potatoes, place 1 cup of water in the bottom of a 6-quart Instant Pot, then place the potatoes on a rack and cook for 16 minutes. Allow natural pressure release for 15 minutes.
How to Store Cheesy Focaccia
Store the cooked bread in an airtight container (at room temperature) for up to two days.
Can You Freeze Cheesy Focaccia
The unbaked focaccia can be frozen. Place on a baking sheet and freeze for two hours. Then transfer to a resealable plastic bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Cook in a hot pan.
