Savory Foccacia with Goat Cheese and Concord Grapes.
So this dish is a twist on a classic Tuscan recipe called Schiacciata con l’uva. The traditional version uses harvest grapes, rosemary , olive oil and sugar on Italian flat bread. But I am not keen on sugar and frankly the concord grapes are sweet enough! Along with the grapes’ unique tartness the addition of soft goat cheese and the traditional olive oil and rosemary make this version incredibly savory!!
I use a pizza/foccacia mix for added simplicity. Try serving it with camembert or brie cheese for even more flavor!
1 package pizza/foccacia mix
Olive oil
1/4 cup soft spread goat cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 cup organic concord grapes(whole)
Bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes
Note; most recipes will call for seeding the grapes, but honestly, grape seeds are super nutritious so just skip this tedious process!
Make the dough using package instructions
Knead into a ball, cover with a bit of olive oil and let rest for 5 minutes
Either stretch or roll out dough
Lay the dough on an olive oil coated pizza pan
Pop into oven for 5 minutes
Remove the pan from the oven and spread the goat cheese on top
Sprinkle with rosemary
Add the grapes, smashing them into the cheese
Sprinkle with a bit more olive oil
Pop into oven for around 25 minutes until dough is crisp and brown
Enjoy with a wedge of Camembert cheese if desired!!
