APRIL 19, 2026: Garden Focaccia

In this class you will learn to make a Garden Focaccia - a delicious, fluffy bread with a scene of veggies on top. It’s the perfect introduction to bread - great for gifting, a party display, or just enjoying at home!

Focaccia is a traditional, airy, light Italian bread, dimpled and baked in a pan with olive oil. Our version plays with these basic elements but incorporates freshly milled BSM flours and a variety of veggies. We will learn a great basic Fluffy Focaccia recipe that can be adapted as you learn and grow in your bread baking skills. 

Together, we will learn about mixing bread, prepping vegetables, and the art of baking a bread worthy of presentation!

BYOB is fine by us for participants 21+ 🥂

Things to look forward to:

• Have an opportunity to learn about different Barton Springs Mill flours and how to incorporate them into your bread mixes
• Practice mixing and folding bread dough 
• Decorate a presentation-worthy bread and understand the signs to look for in proofing and baking focaccia
• Take home a baked focaccia AND dough to practice on your own
