Black and blue Focaccia

[G8trwood]

Out in the camper and tried a desert focaccia. Berries are epic right now. Now my inclusion distribution sucks, but…. Clearly the better half took the pic. She says more butter on top next time ;). Sourdough starter, mixed berries a bit early and just let it rise overnight. In the oven this am.

I like it . Was it a straight up sourdough bread recipe , or more of a sweet dough with starter ?

Now my inclusion distribution sucks,

It never stays where you put it , especially berries . Looks fine to me .

Thanks!
I did my standard focaccia recipe mix. 80% hydration, 20 grams olive oil in mix after initial autolyse. This was 350g of flour. Around 100g starter.
Only sugar was a bit of sugar (1-1/2 raw sugar packets) cinnamon and flour tossed with the berries, some 1/4” cubed butter also.
Thought about a crumble topping but I wanted to keep it simple. It came out pretty light, definitely want to make sure has doubled in the pan.

Absolutely, My cinnamon bread never tastes like cinnamon.
This one was a normal and a chocolate dough with cinnamon in between.

Absolutely, My cinnamon bread never tastes like cinnamon.

The dough formula is at the start , the filling is farther down . The cut shot is at the end of the loaf . Farther into the middle had more " swirl " to it . Strong cinnamon flavor .

Brown sugar and cinnamon loaf .

Been wanting to try this for awhile . Had a full day at the mixer yesterday . 2 batches of pizza dough for later in the week . 2 - 500 gram batches of sourdough now resting in the fridge , and this batch of cinnamon loaf . I tried this once before , with failed results . This time I used a mix...

Looks really good. Only issue I see is you made the single serving size. Did you re-warm it to serve or serve room temp? I bet those blueberries would be nice just barely warmed. Mmm mmm.

You used fresh berries ?

Yes, fresh blueberries and blackberries. I didn’t cook them first.

That look's straight up Kill'er, and by far the thickest focaccia that I've ever seen. I'd really enjoy that with a blob of vanilla gelato or whipped heavy sweat cream on it. I love berries, I missed picking them last yr, this yr I won't be late. We have tons of wild blackberry patches real close to home. I need to keep an eye on them a little better this yr. they are normally ready around the 4th of July and into early Aug. It was so hot out here last summer, I dropped the ball, and said screw that, it's way too hot for me.

I can't stand picking them, you get cut up pretty well, and rattlesnakes love hiding under blackberry bushes, but I love eating them.

Yes, fresh

I've used dried and frozen . Need to try fresh .
