How to make Focaccia Bread .
- Preheat your oven to 350. Prep a baking pan for nonstick. Mine was prepped with olive oil and brushed on top of parchment paper.
- Start by separating three of the eggs, placing the whites into a mixing bowl and the yolks in another bowl. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
