Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp sugar
2 tsp instant yeast
1 tsp salt
1 cup warm water (110°F)
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for greasing
1 tsp garlic powder
2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
Sea salt flakes, for topping
Extra rosemary, for topping
Extra olive oil, for drizzling
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
Add warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel or plastic wrap, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Grease a muffin tin with olive oil.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and place each portion into a muffin cup.
Use your fingers to gently dimple the tops of the dough portions.
Drizzle tops with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, chopped rosemary, and sea salt flakes.
Let rest for 20 minutes while preheating oven to 400°F (200°C).
Bake for 18–22 minutes or until golden brown and crusty on top.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
