MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO
No Knead Focaccia Recipe: bonappetit.com/recipe/easy-no-...

I used this focaccia recipe but I used Rapid Yeast so I didn't need to use the honey. You can sub maple if you ‘re using regular yeast. I recommend weighing the flour if possible because it really makes a difference when baking, and I didn't use any garlic butter on top like this recipe calls for. I did grease the pan 9x13in pan with vegan butter though and it made the crust taste so delicious! 10/10 recommend this step! Delicious.
