Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Focaccia
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water with granulated sugar. Sprinkle active dry yeast on top and let it sit for 10-15 minutes until frothy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together bread flour and salt. Pour in yeast mixture and olive oil, stirring until a sticky dough forms.
- Lightly oil the dough surface, cover with a damp towel, and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
- Prepare a greased baking pan, gently deflate the dough, and spread into the pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1.5-2 hours.
- In a saucepan, melt unsalted butter over medium heat until golden brown and nutty, about 5-7 minutes. Cool slightly.
- Mix light brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Add cooled brown butter and stir until combined.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Dimple the dough and drizzle the cinnamon topping evenly.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Cool for 10 minutes, then mix icing ingredients and drizzle over the focaccia.

Notes
Allow the dough sufficient time to rise for the perfect texture. Monitor for stickiness and avoid adding extra flour.
