Course: bread
Cuisine: American
Author: The Kitchen Prep

Ingredients

  • 1 small onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup seedless grapes red or green
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves roughly chopped
  • 1 garlic clove minced or grated
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1½ cups warm water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil plus more or drizzling
  • 1¼ teaspoons sea salt
  • 3½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon instant yeast

Instructions

  • Heat about a tablespoon of olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat.
  • Add sliced onion and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Sauté onion until golden and caramelized, about 20 minutes. (If pan begins to dry out, just add a little splash of water and scrape up bits from the bottom.) Set aside until ready to use.
  • Meanwhile, combine olive oil and grated garlic clove in a small microwave safe cup. Microwave on high for 30-45 seconds until oil is fragrant. Set aside.
  • Drizzle a 9x13 inch sheet pan with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine all ingredients and mix at high speed for about a minute until fully combined.
  • Scoop batter onto oiled pan, spreading dough out as much as possible. (The dough will be sticky.) Cover with a clean dish towl and let rise for an hour.
  • Uncover dough and poke with tips of fingers to make deep indentations. With a silicone basting brush, "paint" on prepared garlic oil. Drizzle dough liberally with plain olive oil.
  • Top dough with grapes, pressing them into the dough. Sprinkle with caramelized onion, rosemary and sea salt.
  • Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes or until the top develops a golden brown crust.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes, then remove from sheet pan with a spatula and transfer to a cutting board. Cut and serve warm.
