This focaccia is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional bread. It's made with almond flour and coconut flour, which are both gluten-free and high in fiber. The watercress and sun-dried tomatoes add a pop of flavor and color, and the olive oil makes the focaccia moist and tender.
Focaccia is a flatbread that originated in Italy. It's typically made with white flour, water, yeast, and olive oil. Focaccia can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as herbs, vegetables, cheese, and meat. This recipe for watercress and sun-dried tomato focaccia is a bit of a twist on the classic. I've used almond flour and coconut flour instead of white flour, and I've added watercress and sun-dried tomatoes for flavor. The result is a focaccia that's both delicious and healthy.
