Focaccia Bread

Contributed by: Melinda

For the bread maker.

1 cup flat beer
1 tbl olive oil
2 tbl Sugar
1 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups bread flour or all-purpose
1 tsp Active Dry Yeast
2 medium onions, sliced Kosher Salt

Add ingredients to bread machine baking pan according to bread machine instructions and set for dough setting.
While dough is working, Cut onions in half, peel and slice into 1/4 inch slices
Drizzle a little olive into a sauté pan and add onion slices, separating them as you drop them in
Sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon of Kosher salt and stir to coat
Cook over medium-low to medium heat until onions are golden brown
Remove from heat and wait for dough to finish
When bread machine is finished, remove dough from pan and knead gently
Spread into an oiled cookie sheet (I like to make mine about 1/2 inch thick, but 1 inch thick is more standard)
Press the tips of your fingers all over the surface of the dough
Brush with olive, cover with a tea towel and let stand for about 15 minutes
After 15 minutes, spread onions over the focaccia and brush edges with olive oil
Sprinkle with more Kosher salt and bake in preheated 375-400 degree oven for 20-30 minutes until golden on the edges

You can add chopped fresh rosemary to this Roman style focaccia, or you can be totally creative by using anything you like such as sun-dried tomatoes, blue cheese, pine nuts, basil or other herbs, etc.
