Who says peaches are only for pies and cobblers? This peach focaccia with a cinnamon-sugar outer crust will have you wishing peach season lasted year-round.
It’s amazing where inspiration will strike for my next recipe. Last week while at the farmer’s market, I sampled some peach focaccia from a local artisan bakery and fell in love. I couldn’t get home fast enough to bake my own loaf.
And if possible, my homemade version was even better than the bakery’s. It was soft and chewy, and the cinnamon and peach were such a great combination that I couldn’t stop myself. About 5 minutes after pulling them out of the oven, one of these little focaccias had already disappeared.
And 10 minutes later another one met the same fate.
This peach focaccia is just sweet enough that it tastes like a treat, but not so sweet that you’ll need to wait till dessert to serve it.
I am more in love with the peaches this summer than ever before, and I’m so happy to have one more way to incorporate them into my baking. If only peach season lasted year-round!
Traditional focaccia is poked and prodded before baking, either with your fingers or the end of a wooden dowel. Poking holes not only gives focaccia its characteristic dimpled appearance, but it provides little places for the olive oil and other toppings to pool and gather.
