Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine warm water with granulated sugar. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the top and let it sit for 10-15 minutes until foamy.
- In a large bowl, whisk together bread flour and salt. Add the foamy yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
- Remove the dough from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Grease a baking pan, then transfer and stretch the dough evenly in the pan and cover it to rise.
- Melt unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat until golden brown and nutty. Let cool slightly.
- Combine light brown sugar and cinnamon into the browned butter until dissolved.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Press dimples into the dough and drizzle the brown butter mixture over it.
- Bake the focaccia for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes.
- For the icing, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract together, then drizzle over the warm focaccia.

Notes
Expect a wet, sticky dough for a light texture. Allow enough rising time and don’t skip browning the butter for enhanced flavor.
