Making this focaccia with pumpkin, red onion and black olives is simple. Combine the flour, yeast and water in the bowl of the mixer and start kneading with the dough hook at low speed. Then add the fine salt followed by the oil slowly. Continue to knead until stringing (about 10 minutes). Take the dough, give it a spherical shape and put it in a bowl just greased with oil.

When the dough has doubled, take it out and transfer it to a 20×30 cm rectangular pan greased with oil. Roll out the dough with your hands along the entire surface of the mold and cover with cling film. Let it rise for 1 hour (possibly in the oven off with the courtesy light on).


Take the dough again and with your fingertips press on its surface. Season with a brine of water and oil completed with the slices of pumpkin, the onion into very fine rings and the pitted olives. Add rosemary and flaked salt and cook in a convection oven at 200 ° for about 40 minutes. The focaccia with pumpkin, red onion and black olives is ready to be served.
