Schiacciata Con l’uva (Tuscan Style Grape, Olive and Goat Cheese Focaccia) ~ No Knead Bread
Prep time: 15 mins+1 hour (proofing time) | Baking time: 25-30 mins | Yield: 13×9″ loaf
Ingredients:
- 3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour (maida)
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1-1/2 cups warm water
- 2 tablespoons honey, divided
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 1/2 cup soft goat cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup seedless red grapes (or any other variety)
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 1 tablespoon fresh or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
Method:
1. In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, yeast and salt. Mix together the warm water, 1 tablespoon honey and 2 tablespoons olive oil and add it to the flour mixture. Use a spatula or spoon to mix everything well to a paste like consistency.
2. Grease and line a 13×9″ pan with baking parchment, pour the dough into it and even it out slightly. There is no need to fill up all the space. Cover with cling wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for approx 40-50 mins or till doubled in volume.
3. When the dough has doubled, poke deep holes evenly into the surface using lightly oiled fingers (the dough will still be sticky). Drizzle the remaining olive oil and honey all over it and cover the surface with the rosemary, chunks of goat cheese, grapes and olives. Leave the pan uncovered for another 15 minutes while your oven preheats to 190 C
4. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and cool slightly before cutting. Serve with olive oil or any dip of your choice

Oh wow – the sweetness of grapes with the saltiness of olives = a lovely balance and flavor combo.
Yum, Yum, Yum and with Goat's cheese in the mix…bliss!
I've never baked with grapes like this before, but love the idea of pairing them with this bread and olives!
Shireen, I cannot begin to tell you how intrigued I am by this loaf. I am definitely putting this on my to make list. Thanks so much for sharing.
I have some grapes in the kitchen and this is an ideal way to use them! No goat cheese in the house at the moment, I wonder if feta would be a good substitute? Might try it!
As I reading the post and trying to scroll down as fast as possible,my mouth was watering. The bread looks so beautiful. It's going into my to try list. Thank you for sharing a wonderful recipe.
Lovely studded bread and flavor combinations!
Never tried grapes in baking. Focaccia looks so fluffy and delicious.
This has been on my to do list for so long – yours came out gorgeous
Just gorgeous! I haven't used grapes in a bread before but your focaccia is a great reason to finally give it a try!
A beautiful bread I love it and must try it.
Made this last evening Shireen – loved it. Thank you for getting me started on breads.Your recipes are so good and easy to follow.
Thanks everyone for the wonderful compliments!!
