Ingredients

• 4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 1/2 cups warm water
• 2 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Dissolve 2 teaspoons active dry yeast in 1 1/2 cups warm water in a large bowl and let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Add 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 cup olive oil to the yeast mixture, stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic, then place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour until doubled.
4. Preheat oven to 425°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with olive oil.
5. Punch down the dough and spread it evenly into the prepared pan, using fingertips to dimple the surface.
6. Mix 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, then spread evenly over the dimpled dough.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and the top is set.
8. While baking, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to make the glaze.
9. Remove focaccia from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
10. Drizzle the glaze over the warm focaccia and slice into squares to serve.
